19 ) Find a definition of `tangent` in a dictionary . Is it correct ? Other comments
From Wordweb
A straight line or plane that touches a curve or curved surface at a point but does not intersect it at that point
No this not entirely correct . It requires a mathematical such as a line with the same slope as the curve at the point of intersection
