The tangent is defined as the single point where a straight line meets a curved surface. The tangent can be determined with a collection of mathematical formulas but is most commonly determined by ...
An object is moving counter-clockwise along a circle with the centre at the origin. At \(t=0\) the object is at point \(A(0,5)\) and at \(t=2\pi\) it is back to point \(A\) for the first time.
As a tangent is a straight line it is described by an equation in the form \(y - b = m(x - a)\). You need both a point and the gradient to find its equation. You are usually given the point - it's ...
Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I really like to use numerical calculations without all the fancy programming ...
All quadratic functions have the same type of curved graphs with a line of symmetry. The graph of the quadratic function \(y = ax^2 + bx + c \) has a minimum turning point when \(a \textgreater 0 \) ...
In math and statistics, you may occasionally need to calculate the slope of a line generated by coordinates in the (x,y) format. The slope is a value that indicates the rate at which the y value of a ...
