A perspective vanishing point on the horizon
Only once. A tangent line shares only one point with any single arc/curve.
yes. only one
A straight line that intersects a circle or curve at two points, but which has both end points outside the circle or curve is called a secant. A straight line that links two points on a circle or curve is called a chord. A straight line which touches a circle or curve at one point is called a tangent. A straight line that cuts a circle or curve at one point is a straight line.* For moving diagrams see Related links below this box.
tan A = (sin A) / (cos A) tan (A)= opposite side length/adjacent side length A is an angle measurement; amount of degrees or radians. If a line is tangent to a curve, it only touches the curve at one point. looks like )| but the line is touching the curve. In a circle, the tangent line touches the circle at one point and is perpinducular to the circle's radius if it is touching that same point.
By differentiating the answer and plugging in the x value along the curve, you are finding the exact slope of the curve at that point. In effect, this would be the slope of the tangent line, as a tangent line only intersects another at one point. To find the equation of a tangent line to a curve, use the point slope form (y-y1)=m(x-x1), m being the slope. Use the differential to find the slope and use the point on the curve to plug in for (x1, y1).
a half-line with a designated end point which extends in only one direction without stopping
Directional Selection.
The set of points on a straight curve that extends to infinity in both directions is a line. A ray is the set of points that lie on a straight curve that is terminated at a point, and continues to infinity. It is also called a half-line. If the set is terminated at a point at both ends, then it is a line segment.
It is a movement from one point to another point or one price quantity combination to another point on a fixed demand curve.
