Question 4 [5]

A curve Y is defined by the following parametric equations: = 10 − 6 and 7 = 6 $ − 12. Find the
point(s) on the curve where the tangent is:

4.1 horizontal. (3)

 the points are for 6 = −2: = 10 − (−2) = 6 and 7 = (−2)$ − 12(−2) =16
for 6 = 2: = 10 − (2) = 6 and 7 = (2)$ − 12(2) = −16

This means that the points where the tangent is horizontal are (6,16) and (6, −16).

4.2 vertical. (2)

 the points is for 6 = 0: = 10 − (0) = 10 and 7 = (0)$ − 12(0) = 0.
This means that the point where the tangent is vertical is (10,0).

Question 6 [4]

Determine the point on the graph of 7 = 4 + 7 that is closest to the origin.

The distance from the origin (0,0) to the point ( , 4 + 7) is given by

L = H( − 0) + R(4 + 7) − 0S .

Let h be the square of the distance, that is, h( ) = L = + (4 + 7) .

h & ( ) = 2 + 2(4 + 7). 4

= 2 + 8(4 + 7)

= 34 + 56
To find the closest value, we must set the derivative of h with respect to to 0:
