Equation of Tangent
The equation of tangent line is a line that touches a curve at a point and is perpendicular to the radius vector drawn to that point.
Equation of Normal
A normal is a line that is perpendicular to a plane. The equation of a normal is a vector equation. The equation of a normal is written as n = (x, y, z)T. The equation of a normal is also written as n = (A, B, C)T.
