i need to find the tangent and normal lines of this equation: y=(x-2)squared, at the points (2,0) using implicit differentiation. someone please help me. i need it for my class tomorrow :cry:
 
this isn't an implicit function, as y can be written as an explicit function of x.

y = (x-2)²

This derivative involves only basic power and chain rule.

y' = 2(x-2) = 2x-4
