The slope of tangent is the derivative of the curve at the given point.
\Differentiate with respect to on each side.
Quotient rule of differentiation: .
Power rule of differentiation: .
Simplify the expression.
\The slope of the tangent line at is
Find the tangent line using the point slope form : .
Substitute the values and
in point slope form.
.
Let are slopes of two lines.
Two lines are perpendicular if and only if .
Normal line is perpendicular to the tangent line.
\Thus the product of their slopes is .
Consider the slope of the tangent line as and slope of the normal line as
.
Therefore , .
Slope of the normal line is .
Point - Slope form: .
Substitute the values and
in point slope form.
.
The tangent line equation is .
The normal line equation is .
