For this function, calculate the equation of the tangent line at the given point
f(x) = tan x + (x^2/ pie^2) at the point (pie,1)
---------------
I'll use the Greek letter pi, not the dessert, pie.
------
f(x) = tan x + (x^2/ pi^2) at the point (pi,1)
f'(x) = sec^2(x) + 2x/pi^2
f'(pi) = 1 + 2pi/pi^2
= 1 + 2/pi
-------
y - 1 = (1 + 2/pi)*(x - pi)
y = 1 + x - pi + 2x/pi - 2
y+=+x+-+pi+%2B+2x%2Fpi+-+1
