    Its the formula for a linear function though, it doesn’t have curvature.

      Yeah why does the teacher have the equation for a line next to what appears to be a parabola?

      And I don’t think either function is going to describe some random cock very accurately.

        Because you need derivatives to get to curvature obviously!

      She’s so tight, it acts like a linear regression…?

      And the definition of curvature features second-order derivatives so is a fair bit more advanced.

    Somebody from my high school class whined to the math teacher that “are we ever going to need this shit for like anything” he replied, “no, you won’t need any of these to work the cash register”

        It’s the derivative of the unit tangent vector at t with respects to t. The unit tangent vector has length 1 and points in the direction the curve is traveling. Since it’s length is fixed at 1, this means the derivative describes how much the direction of the curve is changing with respects to t.

    Couldn’t you easily measure that just by wrapping a measuring tape around it?

      There’s no such thing as perfectly straight.
