find the points (a, b) (a, b) of the plane that satisfy the tangent of the level curve M = f(a, b) M = f (a, b) in the point (a, b) (a, b) passes through (0, 1) (0, 1). I tried solving this simply by using the equation of the tangent to a level curve: fx(a, b)(x − a) +fy(a, b)(y − b) = 0 f x (a, b) (x − a) + f y (a, b) (y − b) = 0 ...
0. Use any functional form of the curve f=f (t) (f values are n-dimensional, t is a real value). And for the point of interest P that corresponds to t=x take f' (t) at x. Divide by modulus of f' (t) computed at x (is going to be a n-dimensional quantity). And voila! the unit tangent vector to your curve.
contributed. The tangent line to a curve at a given point is the line which intersects the curve at the point and has the same instantaneous slope as the curve at the point. Finding the tangent line to a point on a curved graph is challenging and requires the use of calculus; specifically, we will use the derivative to find the slope of the curve.
