Abstract | In many elementary calculus textbooks in use today, the definition of a "smooth curve" is slightly ambiguous from the students' perspective. Even when smoothness is defined carefully, there is a shortage of relevant exercises that would serve to elaborate on related subtle points which many students may find confusing. In this article, the authors provide the definition and present detailed examples of a smooth curve. (Contains 1 table and 1 figure.) (ERIC). |
