Consider the curve x=sin⁡t,  y=t+cos⁡tx=\sin t,\;y=t+\cos t for 0≤t<2π0\le t<2\pi. At which value(s) of tt does the curve have a vertical tangent? a) t=π2t=\dfrac{\pi}{2} only b) t=π2t=\dfrac{\pi}{2} and t=3π2t=\dfrac{3\pi}{2} c) t=3π2t=\dfrac{3\pi}{2} only d) The curve has no vertical tangent in the given interval
