The equation of a normal to the curve, sin ⁡ y = x sin ⁡ π 3 + y at x = 0 , is:
Options
- A2 x - 3 y = 0
- B2 y - 3 x = 0
- C2 y + 3 x = 0
- D2 x + 3 y = 0
Correct answer
D. 2 x + 3 y = 0
Step-by-step solution
sin ⁡ y = x sin ⁡ π 3 + y If x = 0 ,  then y = 0 So point is 0 ,   0 Slope of tangent = d y d x = + sin ⁡ π 3 + y cos ⁡ y - x cos ⁡ π 3 + y at 0 ,   0 d y d x = sin ⁡ π 3 = 3 2 Slope of tangent = 3 2 Slope of Normal = - 2 3 ∴  equation of normal 2 x + 3 y = 0
