Answer:

x-y√2+9=0

Step-by-step explanation:

The given curve is x²/9+y²/36=1 ....... (1) and (-1, 4√2) is a given point on this curve.

We have to find the tangent to the curve (1) at that given point.

Now, differentiating the equation (1) with respect to x, we get,

2x/9+y/18(dy/dx)=0, ⇒dy/dx= -4(x/y).

Hence, dy/dx at (-1,4√2) = 1/√2

Therefore, the equation of tangent is (y-4√2)=1/√2(x+1)

⇒y√2-8=x+1

x-y√2 +9=0 . (Answer)
