Document Summary

Y - f(xo) = m(x - xo) :1. Start with 2 points: point 1: the point of tangency. Find the slop of the line from point 1 to point 2. Slide 2nd point closer and closer to point 1. Find the slop of the tangent line of y=x^2 at point (1,1) and: As we move our point closer and closer to (1,1) our slop gets infinitely closer to 2. Find the average velocity for the time beginning when t=2 and lasting:

Thetangent line to a circle may be defined as the line that intersectsin a single point, called the point of tangency. See thefigure.

If the equation of the circle is x²+y² =r² and the equation of the tangent line is y = mx+b,show that:
