Abstract: Abstract In the graph of the function f(x) shown in figure 7.1, there are three points at which the gradient of the tangent becomes zero—points A, B, and C. These points are known as stationary points, and to find them we must solve the equation: f ’ ( x ) = 0 $$ f'\left( x \right) = 0 $$ i.e. find the values of x for which the gradient of the curve is zero.
