1.Determine the equation of the tangent to the curve at x=4 2.Given the curve , find the equations to the tangents at x=5. Include in your solution a labeled sketch of the situation. (Yes, that said tangents! there is more than one solution to this problem!) Personal advice: Think about Implicit differentiation and logarithmic differentiation. Only use Grade 12 Calculus knowledge. All = (3)! (x - 2)2 + (y + 1)2 = 36
