The normal to the curve at the point where the curve intersects the -axis passes through the point:
  1. (A)
  2. (B)
  3. (C)✓ Correct
  4. (D)

Answer: (C)

Solution

At the -axis , so gives , that is the point . Differentiating implicitly, ; at this reads , so . The tangent slope is , hence the normal slope is , and the normal is , i.e. . The point satisfies it, so the normal passes through .
