View with equal segment lengths:
The twisted cubic curve is lightly sketched in dark blue on the surface. In the portion shown here, we have -1 ≤ t ≤ 1, while the range of u-values varies with t in such a way that a tangent line segment of length = 2 is shown for each value of t. The midpoint of each tangent line segment is at the point of tangency on the twisted cubic curve. |
Viewing suggestion: If your browser is java-enabled, it is recommended to visit one of the JGV links to view the interactive figures. You can view those figures from different directions by dragging them with the mouse. | ||
