t is of interest to find the equations of the tangent to x^2+y^2=10 at (a,b) where the point is on the curve.

Taking the derivative,  2+2′=0⇒′=− , and so the slope of the tangents are  =− .

The equation of the tangent looks like

=−+⇒=−2+⇒=2+2=10

The equation becomes, +=10 .

Now use this formula.
