EXAMPLE 1 Find an equation of the tangent line to the function at the point P(1, 4).

SOLUTION We will be able to find an equation of the tangent line t as soonas we know its slope m. The difficulty is that we know only one point, P, on t,whereas we need two points to compute the slope. But observe that we can

compute an approximation to m by choosing a nearby point on thegraph (as in the figure) and computing the slope mPQ of the secant line PQ.

[A secant line, from the Latin word secans, meaning cutting, is a line thatcuts (intersects) a curve more than once.]

We choose so that Then,

For instance, for the point Q(1.5, 9) we have

The tables below show the values of mPQ for several values of x close to 1.

The closer Q is to P, the closer x is to 1 and, it appears from the tables, thecloser mPQ is to 8 . This suggests that the slope of the tangent line t

should be m = 8 .

1.001 8.004 .999 7.996

We say that the slope of the tangent line is the limit of the slopes of thesecant lines, and we express this symbolically by writing

Assuming that this is indeed the slope of the tangent line, we use the point-slope form of the equation of a line (see Appendix B) to write the equation ofthe tangent line through (1, 4) as

or The graphs below illustrate the limiting process that occurs in this example.As Q approaches P along the graph, the corresponding secant lines rotateabout P and approach the tangent line t.

EXAMPLE 2 The flash unit on a camera operates by storing charge on acapacitor and releasing it suddenly when the flash is set off. The data in thetable describe the charge Q remaining on the capacitor (measured inmicrocoulombs) at time t (measured in seconds after the flash goes off). Usethe data to draw the graph of this function and estimate the slope of thetangent line at the point where t = 0.04. [Note: The slope of the tangent linerepresents the electric current flowing from the capacitor to the flash bulb(measured in microamperes).]

SOLUTION In the figure we plot the data and use it to sketch a curve thatapproximates the graph of the function.

Given the points P(0.04, 67.05) and R(0.00, 100.00) on the graph, we findthat the slope of the secant line PR is

The table at the left shows the results of similar calculations for the slopes ofother secant lines. From this table we would expect the slope of the tangentline at t = 0.04 to lie somewhere between and In fact,the average of the slopes of the two closest secant lines is

So, by this method, we estimate the slope of the tangent line to be -675 (rounded to the nearest integer).

Another method is to draw an approximation to the tangent line at P andmeasure the sides of the triangle ABC, as in the figure. This gives anestimate of the slope of the tangent line as

EXAMPLE 3 Suppose that a ball is dropped from the upper observationdeck of the CN Tower in Toronto, 450 m above the ground. Find the velocityof the ball after 5 seconds.

SOLUTION Through experiments carried out four centuries ago, Galileodiscovered that the distance fallen by any freely falling body is proportionalto the square of the time it has been falling. (This model for free fall neglectsair resistance.) If the distance fallen after t seconds is denoted by s(t) andmeasured in meters, then Galileo's law is expressed by the equation

The difficulty in finding the velocity after 5 s is that we are dealing with asingle instant of time (t = 5), so no time interval is involved. However, wecan approximate the desired quantity by computing the average velocity overthe brief time interval of a tenth of a second from t = 5 to t = 5.1:

The table shows the results of similar calculations of the average velocityover successively smaller time periods.

It appears that as we shorten the time period, the average velocity isbecoming closer to 49 m/s (rounded to one decimal place). Theinstantaneous velocity when t = 5 is defined to be the limiting value ofthese average velocities over shorter and shorter time periods that start at t= 5. Thus the (instantaneous) velocity after 5 s is the following. (Round youranswer to one decimal place.)

v = 49 m/s

5 ≤ t ≤ 6 53.9

5 ≤ t ≤ 5.1 49.49
