	Transcendental curve - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Here for a curve C what matters is the point set (typically in the plane) underlying C, not a given parametrisation.
		For example the unit circle is an algebraic curve (pedantically, the real points of such a curve); the usual parametrisation by trigonometric functions may involve those transcendental functions, but certainly the unit circle is defined by a polynomial equation.
		Other examples of transcendental curves are plots of cycloids, and the exponential and logarithmic functions.

	Curve definitions
		Isoptic curve : For a given curve C consider the locus of the point P from where the tangents from P to C meet at a fixed given angle.
		Pedal curve : Given a curve C then the pedal curve of C with respect to a fixed point O (called the pedal point) is the locus of the point P of intersection of the perpendicular from O to a tangent to C.
		Transcendental curve : A curve of the form f(x,y) = 0 where f(x,y) is not a polynomial in x and y.

		A curve is algebraic when its defining Cartesian equation is algebraic, that is a polynomial in x and y.
		An algebraic curve is called a circular algebraic curve, when the points (±1, ± i) are on the curve.

		(The same remark applies to elliptic curves and elliptic functions; and in fact to curves of genus > 1 and automorphic functions.)
		For example an algebraic curve C either meets a given line L in a finite number of points, or possibly contains all of L.
		Thus a curve intersecting any line in an infinite number of points, while not containing it, must be transcendental.

	Transcendental - Definition of Transcendental by Webster Dictionary
		What is transcendental, therefore, transcends empiricism; but is does not transcend all human knowledge, or become transcendent.
		It simply signifies the a priori or necessary conditions of experience which, though affording the conditions of experience, transcend the sphere of that contingent knowledge which is acquired by experience.

	Algebraic Geometry (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Algebraically, generic values of a parameter can be simulated by introducing a new transcendental element to the field of constants.
		Since many algorithms and theorems are valid over arbitrary fields of constants, the investigation of generic situations can often be performed by a single study of a special situation over a field extension.
		Algebraic geometry does usually not deal with problems involving transcendental functions (sin, log, exp; these are dealt with in analytic geometry) and order relations (<,>: these are dealt with in semi-algebraic geometry).

	Neiles
		This curve, sometimes called the semi-cubical parabola, was discovered by William Neile in 1657.
		Neile's parabola was the first algebraic curve to have its arc length calculated; only the arc lengths of transcendental curves such as the cycloid and the logarithmic spiral had been calculated before this.
		In 1687 Leibniz asked for the curve along which a particle may descend under gravity so that it moves equal vertical distances in equal times.

		The short run average cost curve is (approx.) tangent to the long run average cost curve, at q = 30.
