By the mean value theorem, an interior tangent is parallel to the
Ax-axis at the peak
Bnormal at the midpoint
Cline joining the origin
Dsecant through the ends
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. secant through the ends
The theorem equates the slope of the tangent at some point with the average slope, which is the slope of the secant.
