where c ∈ ℝ n is the center of the circle (irrelevant since it disappears in the derivatives), a,b ∈ ℝ n are perpendicular vectors of length ρ (that is, a · a = b · b = ρ 2 and a · b = 0), and h : ℝ → ℝ is an arbitrary function which is twice differentiable at t.
In it, geometrical shapes can be made, as well as expressions from the normal graphing calculator, with extra features. [8] In September 2023, Desmos released a beta for a 3D calculator, which added features on top of the 2D calculator, including cross products, partial derivatives and double-variable parametric equations.
There exists a circle in the osculating plane tangent to γ(s) whose Taylor series to second order at the point of contact agrees with that of γ(s). This is the osculating circle to the curve. The radius of the circle R(s) is called the radius of curvature, and the curvature is the reciprocal of the radius of curvature:
The graph of the linear approximation is the tangent line of the graph = at the point (, ()). The derivative slope f ′ ( c ) {\displaystyle f\,'(c)} generally varies with the point c . Linear functions can be characterized as the only real functions whose derivative is constant: if f ′ ( x ) = a {\displaystyle f\,'(x)=a} for all x , then f ...
Using the Cartesian coordinate system, geometric shapes (such as curves) can be described by equations involving the coordinates of points of the shape. For example, a circle of radius 2, centered at the origin of the plane, may be described as the set of all points whose coordinates x and y satisfy the equation x 2 + y 2 = 4; the area, the ...
The sum of the squared lengths of any two chords intersecting at right angles at a given point is the same as that of any other two perpendicular chords intersecting at the same point and is given by 8r 2 − 4p 2, where r is the circle radius, and p is the distance from the centre point to the point of intersection.
The graph of a function on its own does not determine the codomain. It is common [3] to use both terms function and graph of a function since even if considered the same object, they indicate viewing it from a different perspective. Graph of the function () = over the interval [−2,+3]. Also shown are the two real roots and the local minimum ...
The graph y = |x| of the absolute value function consists of two straight lines with different slopes joined at the origin. As a point q approaches the origin from the right, the secant line always has slope 1. As a point q approaches the origin from the left, the secant line always has slope −1. Therefore, there is no unique tangent to the ...
