1. Let f(x) = x² - 2x + 1.
(a) Find the slope of the graph of y = f (x) at the point P = (0,1) by directly
evaluating the limit:
f'(0) = lim (
f(Ax) - f(0)

(b) Find the equation of the tangent line 1 to the graph of ƒ at P.
What are the x and y intercepts of 1 ?
(c) Find the equation of the line, n, through P that is perpendicular to the tangent line l.
(Line n is called the normal line to the graph of f at P.)
(d) Sketch a careful graph that displays: the graph of y = f (x), its vertex point, its
tangent and normal lines at point P, and the x and y intercepts of these lines.
Bonus: Find the coordinates of the second point, Q, (QP), at which the normal
line n intersects the graph of f.
