Find the equation of the tangent to the circle \(x^2 + y^2 = 25 \) at the point (3, -4). The tangent will have an equation in the form \(y = mx + c\) so to find the equation you need to find the ...

Using advanced mathematical tools inspired by physics, the team has derived a general equation for any number of tangent ...

The tangent is perpendicular to the radius which joins the centre of the circle to the point P. As the tangent is a straight line, the equation of the tangent will be of the form \(y = mx + c\).
