An atlas for your 1-manifold M is simply ${(M,phi:=proj_1)}$ where proj_1 is the projection on first factor.
So the tangent space in a point $x_0$ is
$T_{x_0}M={afrac{partial}{partial phi}|_{x_0}: ain mathbb{R}}$
Now we can calculate the orthogonal complement of $T_{x_0}M$ in $T_{x_0}mathbb{R}^2$ with respect the flat metric.
The differential with respect the inclusion map $i$ is
$di_{x_0}(frac{partial}{partial phi}|_{x_0})(g)=frac{partial gcirc i}{partial phi}|_{x_0}=frac{partial g}{partial x}_{(x_0,0)}+0 frac{partial g}{partial y}$
for every germs $gin U_{(x_0,0)}$ on $mathbb{R}^2$
So
$di_{x_0}(frac{partial}{partial phi}|_{x_0})(g)=frac{partial }{partial x}|_{(x_0,0)}$
and the orthogonal complement is
${bfrac{partial}{partial y}|_{x_0}: bin mathbb{R}}$
with $x_0in M$

So the orthogonal complement at $x=2$ is $2partial_y$, even though the set is empty at $x=2$? Interesting.

@Anemath2 the tangent space must be a 1-dimensional vector space.. so they are simply coefficient
