A plane is tangent to a double-curvedsurface when it contains one, and only onepoint of that surface. The two lines com-monly determining the tangent plane are thelines tangent to the meridian and parallel atthe point of tangency (Art. 102, page 70). A Normal is the line perpendicular to thetangent plane at the point of tangency. A Normal Plane is any plane containing thenormal. 78 DESCRIPTIVE GEOMETRY III.
