It can be shown that intercepts made by this tangent on the axes at X and Y are equal to the values of Mi and M^ for the phase represented by E, , XC = Mi and YD = Mi* The * If the potentials of ;Si and St in the phase E are ixi and m2, the tangent CD is characterized by the equation df = ixidm,]. + y^idmi, or since when.
