Question : 17
Total: 50
The equation of the tangent to the curve y(1+x2) =2x, where it crosses the X-axis is
We have, equation of the curve y(1+x2)=2x...(i)
y(0+2x)+(1+x2)
dy
dx
=01 [on differentiating w.r.t.x]

2xy+(1+x2)

(ii)

Since, the given curve passes through x axis i.e., y=0.
O(1+x2)=2x [using Eq.(i)]
x=2
So, the curve passes through the point (2,0).
