Graphics Examples

This plot of a parameterized curve makes a seven-petaled "rose."

The derivative can be interpreted geometrically as the slope of a line tangent to the function curve at a given point.

This surface plot shows the behavior of a two-parameter function, including a maximal value at the center.

Inner or outer Riemann sums, shown geometrically here, approach the value of a function's integral as the width of the intervals approaches zero.
