The equation of the tangent to the curve at the point corresponding to the given value of the parameter will be x + y = c.
<h3>How to calculate the tangent of the parameter curves at a point?</h3>The curves are given below.
x = t⁵ + 1 and y = t⁶ + t
Then differentiate the functions with respect to t, then we have
...1
and
...2
Divide equation 2 by equation 1, then we have
Then the slope of the equation at t = −1, then we have
dy/dx = [6(-1)⁵ + 1]/[5(-1)⁴]
dy/dx = (-6+1)/5
dy/dx = -5/5
dy/dx = -1
Then the equation of the tangent line will be
y = -x + c
x + y = c
Where c is a constant.
