Defined in local-properties-at-t/tangent/double/tangent-at-1.ts:13

Returns the tangent vector (not necessarily of unit length) of an order 0,1,2 or 3 bezier curve at t === 1, i.e. Returns the result, [x,y], of evaluating the derivative of a linear, quadratic or cubic bezier curve's power basis at t === 1.

  • uses double precision calculations internally
