Given the function \(f,\) find the slope of the line tangent to the graph of \(f^{-1}\) at the specified point on the graph of \(f^{-1}\) . $$f(x)=(x+2)^{2} ;(36,4)$$
A port and a radar station are 2 mi apart on a straight shore running east and west. A ship leaves the port at noon traveling northeast at a rate of \(15 \mathrm{mi} / \mathrm{hr}\). If the ship maintains its speed and course, what is the rate of change of the tracking angle \(\theta\) between the shore and the line between the radar station and the ship at 12: 30 p.m.? (Hint: Use the Law of sines.)
Vertical tangent lines a. Determine the points where the curve \(x+y^{2}-y=1\) has a vertical tangent line (see Exercise 53 ). b. Does the curve have any horizontal tangent lines? Explain.
Visualizing tangent and normal lines a. Determine an equation of the tangent line and normal line at the given point \(\left(x_{0}, y_{0}\right)\) on the following curves. (See instructions for Exercises \(63-68 .)\) b. Graph the tangent and normal lines on the given graph. \(\left(x^{2}+y^{2}-2 x\right)^{2}=2\left(x^{2}+y^{2}\right);\) \(\left(x_{0}, y_{0}\right)=(2,2)\) (limaçon of Pascal)
Use the following table to find the given derivatives. $$\begin{array}{llllll} x & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 \\ \hline f(x) & 5 & 4 & 3 & 2 & 1 \\ f^{\prime}(x) & 3 & 5 & 2 & 1 & 4 \\ g(x) & 4 & 2 & 5 & 3 & 1 \\ g^{\prime}(x) & 2 & 4 & 3 & 1 & 5 \end{array}$$ $$\left.\frac{d}{d x}\left[\frac{f(x)}{(x+2)}\right]\right|_{x=4}$$
