Homework Statement


Write the equations of tangent lines to the curve of the implicit function x2+2x+2y2-4y=5
that are normal to the line y=x+122. The attempt at a solution
I know that the slope has to be m=-1
I found the derivative using implicit differentiation:
dy/dx=(-2x-2)/(4y-4)

Now I am unsure how to find the points, please help it is due tomorrow.
