To find the equation of the tangent line to the graph of y = 2sin(x) at the point where x = π/3, we need to first calculate the derivative of the function. This derivative represents the slope of the tangent line. After finding the slope, we evaluate the function at x = π/3 to find the corresponding y-coordinate. Finally, using the point-slope form of a line, we can derive the equation of the tangent line. This process involves using the product and quotient rules for differentiation, particularly relevant in calculus.
