Find the equation of the normal lines to the curve which is
parallel to the line Please answer in steps.. First you need to
find the derivative: Then, from the equation of the line you are
given, you see that the slopes of the normal line is -2 ; and
since you want the slope of the tangets, you get the opposite
reciprocal of -2, which is m=1/2. Now you have y', just plug it
in the derivative function and find your x. Then with that, go
back to the original equation and find y. And you have all the
ingredients necessary to set a line equation of the normals.
