OBJECTIVES

After studying this unit, you will be able to know


about the-
Differential Geometry.
Space Curves.
Tangents.
Contact of Curve and Surfaces.
Osculating Plane.
INTRODUCTION

Differential geometry is that part of geometry which is treated with the


help of differential calculus. There are two branches of differential
geometry:
Local differential geometry: In which we study the properties of curves
and surfaces in the neighborhood of a point.
Global differential geometry: In which we study the properties of curves
and surfaces as a whole.
SPACE CURVE
VECTOR REPRESENTATION OF SPACE CURVE
UNIT TANGENT VECTOR OF A CURVE
THE EQUATION OF TANGENT LINE TO A
CURVE AT A GIVEN POINT
EQUATION OF TANGENT LINE WHEN THE
EQUATION OF THE GIVEN CURVE IS GIVEN AS
THE INTERSECTION OF TWO SURFACES
DIRECTION-
DIRECTION-COSINES OF THE TANGENT LINE
Examples:
CONTACT OF CURVE AND SURFACES
CONDITION FOR A CURVE AND A SURFACE
HAVE A CONTACT OF nth ORDER
INFLEXIONAL TANGENT

Example:
OSCULATING PLANE
EQUATION OF OSCULATING PLANE
Equation of the osculating plane in terms of general
parameter t
Equation of the osculating plane in terms of cartesian
coordinates
To find the osculating plane at a point of a space curve given
by the intersection of two surfaces
