A quantitative lower bound for tangent projections

On a parameter interval of length at most 1 / 32, the velocity has inner product at least 3 / 32 with the tangent at either prescribed endpoint. The scalar mean value theorem then bounds the projected chord from below.

    The derivative of projection onto the fixed tangent at s stays positive throughout the prescribed parameter scale.

    Source documentation

    The chord's projection onto the tangent at its first parameter controls parameter distance. The tangent remains fixed at s for either order of s and t.
