Question:
Find the equation of all lines of slope zero and that is tangent to the curve $y=\frac{1}{x^{2}-2 x+3}$.
Solution:
finding the slope of the tangent by differentiating the curve
$\frac{\mathrm{dy}}{\mathrm{dx}}=-\frac{(2 \mathrm{x}-2)}{\left(\mathrm{x}^{2}-2 \mathrm{x}+3\right)}$
Now according to question, the slope of all tangents is equal to 0 , so
$-\frac{(2 x-2)}{\left(x^{2}-2 x+3\right)}=0$
Therefore the only possible solution is $x=1$
since this point lies on the curve, we can find $y$ by substituting $x$
$y=\frac{1}{1-2+3}$
$y=\frac{1}{2}$
equation of tangent is given by $y-y_{1}=m($ tangent $)\left(x-x_{1}\right)$
$y-\frac{1}{2}=0(x-1)$
$y=\frac{1}{2}$
