Must be coded in Wolfram Mathematica
**Problem 2:**

Find the equation of the tangent line for the following parametric function. Then plot the original curve and the tangent line on the same graph.

- \( x = 2 + \sec t \)
- \( y = 1 + 2 \tan t \)
- \( t = \frac{\pi}{6} \)

**Instructions:**

1. **Differentiate the Parametric Equations:**
   - Compute \(\frac{dx}{dt}\) and \(\frac{dy}{dt}\).
   
2. **Find the Slope of the Tangent Line:**
   - Use the formula for the slope of the tangent line: \(\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{\frac{dy}{dt}}{\frac{dx}{dt}}\).

3. **Evaluate at \( t = \frac{\pi}{6} \):**
   - Substitute \( t = \frac{\pi}{6} \) into the expressions for \( x \) and \( y \) to find the point on the curve.
   - Substitute \( t = \frac{\pi}{6} \) into the expression for the slope to find the slope at this point.

4. **Find the Equation of the Tangent Line:**
   - Use the point-slope form of the equation of a line: \( y - y_1 = m(x - x_1) \), where \( m \) is the slope and \((x_1, y_1)\) is the point on the curve.

5. **Graphing:**
   - Plot the curve using the parametric equations.
   - Plot the tangent line on the same graph.
