Answer:\text { The required points are }\left(\frac{5}{3}, \frac{4}{3}\right) \text { or }\left(\frac{4}{3}, \frac{4}{3}\right)

Hint: \text { The slope of the tangent is the limit of } \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \text { as } \Delta x \text { approaches zero. }

Given:\text { The curve is } y=3 x^{2}-9 x+8

Solution: y=3 x^{2}-9 x+8

\text { Differentiating the above with respect to } x

\therefore \frac{d}{d x}\left(\mathrm{x}^{n}\right)=n x^{n-1}, \frac{d}{d x}(\text { constant })=0

\frac{d y}{d x}=3(2) x^{2-1}-9

\frac{d y}{d x}=6 x-9 \quad \rightarrow(1)

\frac{d y}{d x}=\text { The slope of tangent }=\tan \theta

\text { The tangent is equally inclined with the axis } \theta=\frac{\pi}{4} \text { or } \frac{-\pi}{4}

\frac{d y}{d x}=\tan \left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right) \text { or } \tan \left(-\frac{\pi}{4}\right)

=1 \text { or }-1 \rightarrow(2)

From(1)&(2) we get

6 x-9=1 \text { or } 6 x-9=-1

6 x=1+9 \text { or } 6 x=-1+9

6 x=10 \quad \text { or } 6 x=8

x=\frac{10}{6} \quad \text { or } \quad x=\frac{8}{6}

x=\frac{5}{3} \quad \text { or } \quad x=\frac{4}{3}

Thus the requried points are\left(\frac{5}{3}, \frac{4}{3}\right) \text { or }\left(\frac{4}{3}, \frac{4}{3}\right)
