Equation of the normal to the curve \(y=x^2+x\) at the point \((1,2)\) is

  1. A \(x-3 y+5=0\)
  2. B \(x+3 y+7=0\)
  3. C \(x+3 y+5=0\)
  4. D \(x+3 y-7=0\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(x+3 y-7=0\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(y=x^2+x \Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}=2 x+\left.1 \Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}\right|_{(1,2)}=3\) Equation of normal at \((1,2)\) is…
