The eqnof the given curve is y=x22x+7

Slope of tangent, dydx=2x2

(a) The line 2xy+9=0y=2x+9 compared to y=mx+c gives,

Slope of line = 2.

If the tangent of the curve is parallel to the line

dydx=slope of line

2x2=2

x=42x=2

When x=2,y=(2)22(2)+7=7

Hence, the point of contact of the tangent is (2, 7)

The eqn of tangent is y7=2(x2)

y7=2x4

2xy+3=0

(b) The line 5y15x=13y=155x+135y=3x+135

compared to y=mx+c gives

slope of line = 3

As the tangent to the cu

From option let it be isosceles where AB = AC then

x = r 2 ( h r ) 2            

r 2 h 2 r 2 + 2 r h

x = 2 h r h 2 . . . . . . . . ( i )

 Now ar ( Δ A B C ) = Δ = 1 2 B C × A L

Δ = 1 2 × 2 2 h r a 2 × h        

then  x = 2 × 3 r 2 × r 9 r 2 4 = 3 2 r f r o m ( i )

B C = 3 r    

So A B = h 2 + x 2 = 9 r 2 4 + 3 r 2 4 = 3 r .

Hence Δ be equilateral having each side of length 3 r .
