nDeriv(X2,X,3)
You could also use nDeriv( to find slope of the tangent line. The syntax is nDeriv(<expression>,<real>,<number>), where <expression> is the original curve (which you used for Tangent(), <real> is the independent variable (here X), and <number> is the X-value of the tangent. So if you wanted to find the tangent equation of Y=X2 at X=3, the slope would beQuote from: TI-BASICnDeriv(X2,X,3)For your second question, here is a nice guide. Basically, since you know the slopes, you can find the tangents of the two angles, and since you can find the tangents of the two angles, you can find the actual angle difference.
:startTmr -> A:Pause //just to let time pass:checkTmr(A) //returns the seconds passed since you started the timer
hey i recommend not to program in TI-BASIC and to program in axeit's much more convenientand faster too
it's against Omnimaga rules to discourage people from using a language or another, especially in an help topic about a specific language.
