Derivatives and Tangents

I'm totally confused.  The problem is: use the fact that the derivative of the function g(x)=square root is g`(x) equals 1over 2square rooto f x to find lthe equation of the tangent line to the graph of g(x) at the point x=81.  What is the correct answer and why is my answer of 1/41x+8/2 is not right?
