What is the slope of tangent at (2, 4) to the curve y = x²?
- 2
- 4
- 6
- None of these
Explanation
To find the slope of the tangent to the curve at the point , we compute the derivative of with respect to , which gives the slope of the tangent at any point on the curve.
Differentiate :
Evaluate the derivative at :
Therefore, the slope of the tangent at is .
