Q. Find the equation of the normal to the curve.\newlinedydx=1.84e0.5x at x=1\frac{dy}{dx}=1.84e^{0.5 x} \text{ at } x=1
  1. Find Tangent Slope: First, we need to find the slope of the tangent to the curve at x=1x=1.
  2. Calculate Tangent Slope: Now, we calculate the actual value of the slope at x=1x=1.
  3. Calculate Normal Slope: The slope of the normal is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the tangent, i.e., if the slope of the tangent is mm, then the slope of the normal is 1m-\frac{1}{m}.
  4. Find Curve's y-coordinate: Now we find the y-coordinate of the curve at x=1x=1.
