Question 17 Find the points on the curve š¦=š„3 at which the slope of the tangent is equal to the y-coordinate of the pointLet the Point be (ā , š) on the Curve š¦=š„3 Where Slope of tangent at (ā , š)=š¦āššššššššš”š šš (ā, š) i.e. ćšš¦/šš„āć_((ā, š) )=š Given š¦=š„^3 Differentiating w.r.t.š„ šš¦/šš„=3š„^2 ā“ Slope of tangent at (ā , š) is ćšš¦/šš„āć_((ā, š) )=3ā^2 From (1) ćšš¦/šš„āć_((ā, š) )=š 3ā^2=š Also Point (ā , š) is on the Curve š¦=š„^3 Point (ā , š) must Satisfy the Equation of Curve i.e. š=ā^3 Now our equations are 3ā^2=š ā¦(1) & š=ā^3 ā¦(2) Putting Value of š=3ā^2 in (3) 3ā^2=ā^3 ā^3ā3ā^2=0 ā^2 (āā3)=0 ā^2=0 ā=0 āā3=0 ā=3 When š=š 3ā^2=š 3(0)=š š=0 Hence, point is (0, 0) When š=š 3ā^2=š 3(3)^2=š š=27 Hence, point is (3 , 27)
