The slope of the tangent to the curve \(x=a t^2, y=2 a t\) at ' \(t\) ' is :

  1. A \(1 / t\)
  2. B \(1 / t^2\)
  3. C \(-1 / t\)
  4. D \(-1 / t^2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(1 / t\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \frac{dx}{dt} = 2at \) \( \frac{dy}{dt} = 2a \) \( \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{dy/dt}{dx/dt} = \frac{2a}{2at} = \frac{1}{t} \)
