Rolle's Theorem

Here we illustrate Rolle's Theorem: if a function satisfies the three conditions
  • is continuous over the closed interval , and
  • is differentiable over the open interval , and
then there exists at least one point in for which . Geometrically, the conclusion of the theorem says there exists a point in for which the tangent line to through the point is horizontal.
