tangent at point of inflection

См. также в других словарях:

  • Inflection point — In differential calculus, an inflection point, or point of inflection (or inflexion) is a point on a curve at which the curvature changes sign. The curve changes from being concave upwards (positive curvature) to concave downwards (negative… …   Wikipedia

  • Tangent — For the tangent function see trigonometric functions. For other uses, see tangent (disambiguation). In geometry, the tangent line (or simply the tangent) to a curve at a given point is the straight line that just touches the curve at that point… …   Wikipedia

  • Stationary point — Not to be confused with a fixed point where x = f(x). Stationary points (red pluses) and inflection points (green circles). The stationary points in this graph are all relative maxima or relative minima. In mathematics, particularly in calculus,… …   Wikipedia

  • Singular point of a curve — In geometry, a singular point on a curve is one where the curve is not given by a smooth embedding of a parameter. The precise definition of a singular point depends on the type of curve being studied. Contents 1 Algebraic curves in the plane 1.1 …   Wikipedia

  • Saddle point — In mathematics, a saddle point is a point in the domain of a function of two variables which is a stationary point but not a local extremum. At such a point, in general, the surface resembles a saddle that curves up in one direction, and curves… …   Wikipedia

  • Critical point (mathematics) — See also: Critical point (set theory) The abcissae of the red circles are stationary points; the blue squares are inflection points. It s important to note that the stationary points are critical points, but the inflection points are not nor are… …   Wikipedia

  • analysis — /euh nal euh sis/, n., pl. analyses / seez /. 1. the separating of any material or abstract entity into its constituent elements (opposed to synthesis). 2. this process as a method of studying the nature of something or of determining its… …   Universalium

  • Contact (mathematics) — Osculation redirects here. For other meanings, see Kiss. In mathematics, contact of order k of functions is an equivalence relation, corresponding to having the same value at a point P and also the same derivatives there, up to order k. The… …   Wikipedia

  • Evolute — In the differential geometry of curves, the evolute of a curve is the locus of all its centers of curvature. Equivalently, it is the envelope of the normals to a curve. The original curve is an involute of its evolute. (Compare and… …   Wikipedia

  • Derivative — This article is an overview of the term as used in calculus. For a less technical overview of the subject, see Differential calculus. For other uses, see Derivative (disambiguation) …   Wikipedia

  • Dual curve — Curves, dual to each other; see below for properties. In projective geometry, a dual curve of a given plane curve C is a curve in the dual projective plane consisting of the set of lines tangent to C. There is a map from a curve to its dual,… …   Wikipedia
