    The equation of the normal to the curve \[y=x(2-x)\]at point (2, 0) is

    A)  \[x-2y=2\]        

    B)  \[x-2y+2=0\]

    C)  \[2x+y=0\]       

    D)  \[2x+y-4=0\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     Given, curve is\[y=x(2-x)\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[y=2x-{{x}^{2}}\] \[\frac{dy}{dx}=2-2x\] At \[(2,0)\] \[{{\left( \frac{dy}{dx} \right)}_{(2,0)}}=2-4=-2\] Equation of normal is \[{{\left( \frac{dy}{dx} \right)}_{({{x}_{1}},{{y}_{1}})}}(y-{{y}_{1}})+(x-{{x}_{1}})=0\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[-2(y-0)+(x-2)=0\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[-2y+x-2=0\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[x-2y=2\]
