The angle between the curve "  2y= e-x/2  " and the y-axis??​

Dear Student,
Please find below the solution to the asked query:

We have2y=e-x/2For y-axis, x=02y=e0y=12Hence y-axis and e-x/2 intersect at 0,122y=e-x/2Differentiate with respect to x2dydx=-12e-x2Put 0,12 to get slope of tangent2dydx=-12e0dydx=-14=tanθθ=tan-1-14Angle made with y-axis=π2+ θ=π2+tan-1-14=π2-tan-114=cot-114=tan-14
