Enter the x-coordinate of the first point
Enter the y-coordinate of the first point
Enter the x-coordinate of the second point
Enter the y-coordinate of the second point
Calculate the equation of a tangent line to a curve at a given point.
y - y1 = m(x - x1) m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Given the curve y = x^2 and the point (1, 1), we can find the slope of the tangent line using the formula m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).
The tangent line to a curve at a given point is the line that just touches the curve at that point and has the same slope as the curve.
Enter the coordinates of two points on the curve, and the tool will calculate the equation of the tangent line.
