| 41. | Quasi-Newton methods are generalizations of the secant method to find the root of the first derivative for multidimensional problems.
|
| 42. | The tangent at a point on a curve is defined intuitively as the limiting position of secant line through the point.
|
| 43. | If you start with a secant, and move the two points closer together, the secant will become a tangent.
|
| 44. | If you start with a secant, and move the two points closer together, the secant will become a tangent.
|
| 45. | Where sech is the hyperbolic secant function and \ delta is a phase shift ( by an initial horizontal displacement ).
|
| 46. | As a point " q " approaches the origin from the right, the secant line always has slope 1.
|
| 47. | Play piercing as part of a BDSM secant so that both ends are accessible, rather than'into'the skin.
|
| 48. | The secant, ellipsoidal form of the transverse Mercator is the most widely applied of all projections for accurate large scale maps.
|
| 49. | If the initial values are not close enough to the root, then there is no guarantee that the secant method converges.
|
| 50. | Furthermore, Brent's method uses inverse quadratic interpolation instead of linear interpolation ( as used by the secant method ).
