Given,
`y = (coshx - sinhx)^2` , (0, 1)
to find the tangent quation,
so first find the slope of the tangent and is as follows,
let `y=f(x)`
so we have to find the f'(x) to get the slope
so,
`f'(x)= ((coshx - sinhx)^2)'`
let` u= (coshx - sinhx)`
and `(df)/dx = df/(du) * (du)/(dx)`
so ,
`f'(x) = d/du ( u^2) * d/dx (coshx -sinhx)`
=`2u* (d/dx(coshx) - d/dx(sinhx))`
`= 2u * (sinhx - coshx)`
`=2(coshx-sinhx)(sinhx-coshx)`
so the slope of the line through the point (0,1) is
`f'(x) = 2(coshx-sinhx)(sinhx-coshx)`
`f'(0) = 2(cosh 0-sinh 0 )(sinh 0-cosh 0)`
= `2(1-0)(0-1)`
= -2.
now the slope is -2 , so the equation of the tangent is ,
`y-y_1= m (x-x1)`
`y-1=(-2)(x-0)`
`y-1=-2x`
`y=1-2x`
so the tangent equation is `y=1-2x`
