    Radius 5, point is (-3,4), so I thought of the 3-4-5 special right triangle.

    For anyone who want to know why the triangle that emerges from the radius and tangent line's relationship are always a right triangle, I recommend reading up on Thales's theorem.

    But what if i wanted to use calculus?

    1. By using a simple Implicit Differentiation method, we can get that y’ = -x/y.
    2. Or we can use polar coordinate system, set x = r cos theta, y = r sin theta, so y’(x) = y’(theta)/x’(theta) = x/(-y) as well.

    Still easier to differentiate,  but always nice to see graphical solution.

    2x+2y.y'=0
    y'=-2x/2y=-x/y
    y'(3,-4)= -3/-4 =3/4

    Just use implicit differentiation for a longer way

    But implicit differentiation is so easy here. Honestly about as easy as this. dy/dx=-x/y and plug in (3,-4)

    2x+2yy'=0
    2yy'=-2x
    y'=-x/y

    y(1)-x(-x/y)///y²

    y+x²/y//y² =-25/y³
    y"=-25/y³

    If you can, please show from ellipse equation,if P(x,y) is a point of ellipse.Then the distance between P and focus is equal to eccentricity times its distance from directrix.
