Given : the tangent to the Curve 3y^2 = x^3 at (3,3)
To Find : Tangent Equation
the area of the triangle bounded by the tangent line the x-axis and the line x=3
Solution:
3y² = x³
=> 6ydy /dx = 3x²
=> dy/dx = x² / 2y
point ( 3 , 3)
Slope = 3² /2 (2) = 3/3
Equation of tangent
y - 3 = (3/2)(x - 3)
=> 2y - 6 = 3x - 9
=> 2y = 3x - 3
2y = 3x - 3
x-axis => y = 0
=> x = 1
( 1 , 0 )
x = 3 => y = 2
( 3 , 3)
x = 3 and y axis
Hence ( 3 , 0)
So there vertex of triangle
( 1 , 0) , ( 3 , 0) and ( 3 , 3)
Hence its a right angle triangle
with base = 2 and Height = 3
So area = (1/2) * 2 * 3 = 3 sq units
or using vertex method
= (1/2) | 1 ( 0 - 3) + 3(3 - 0) + 3(0 - 0) |
= (1/2) | - 3 + 9 + 0|
= (1/2) * 6
= 3 sq units
Hence area of the triangle bounded by the tangent line the x-axis and the line x=3 is 3 sq units
