Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 1

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

We have, \[ \begin{aligned} y & =f(x) \\ \frac{d y}{d x} & =f^{\prime}(x) \\ \left(\frac{d y}{d x}\right)_{1,2} & =f^{\prime}(1) \end{aligned} \] Slope of normal \(=\frac{-1}{f^{\prime}(1)}\) \(\therefore\) Normal of curve makes an angle \(\frac{3 \pi}{4}\) with positive…
