We can calculate the gradient of a tangent to a curve by differentiating. In order to find the equation of a tangent, we: Differentiate the equation of the curve Substitute the \(x\) value into ...

First, find \(m\), the gradient of the tangent. On a diagram, draw the circle and the tangent at the point P (3, -4) and draw the radius from the centre (0, 0) to the point P.
