Draw the curve y = tan x, and let the tangent at 0, y = x,meet the curve in ...P, O, P, Q,... , fig. 17, plate II. 36 EXAMPLES OF APPROXIMATION PLATE III. The figure shews that, since the branches of the curve are all similar, the abscissae of the points P, Q, R, etc. arenearer and nearer to the valu
