  1. The statement is True.
  2. The statement is False.
  3. The statement is True.

Step by step solution

01

Determine whether the given statement is True or False

a)

Thecubic Bezier curveis determined by four control points. The standard form is shown below:

\({\bf{x}}\left( t \right) = {\left( {1 - t} \right)^3}{{\bf{p}}_0} + 3t{\left( {1 - t} \right)^2}{{\bf{p}}_1} + 3{t^2}\left( {1 - t} \right){{\bf{p}}_2} + {t^3}{{\bf{p}}_3}\)

Thus, the given statement (a) is True.

02

Determine whether the given statement is True or False

b)

Recall that thetangent vectorat \({{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _0}\), for instance, from \({{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _0}\) to \({{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _1}\), and it is twice as long as the segment from \({{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _0}\) to \({{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _1}\).

Thus, the given statement (b) is False.

03

Determine whether the given statement is True or False

c)

It is true that when two quadratic Bezier curve with control points \(\left\{ {{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _0},{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _1},{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _2}} \right\}\)and \(\left\{ {{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _2},{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _3},{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _4}} \right\}\) then \({{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _2}\) is the midpoint of the line segment from \({{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _1}\) to \({{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _3}\).

The Bezier curve has \({C^1}\) continuity at \({{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _2}\) when joined at \({{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _2}\), then \({{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _2}\) is the midpoint of the line segment from \({{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _1}\) to \({{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _3}\).

Thus, the given statement (c) is True.

In Exercises 13-15 concern the subdivision of a Bezier curve shown in Figure 7. Let \({\mathop{\rm x}\nolimits} \left( t \right)\) be the Bezier curve, with control points \({{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _0},...,{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _3}\), and let \({\mathop{\rm y}\nolimits} \left( t \right)\) and \({\mathop{\rm z}\nolimits} \left( t \right)\) be the subdividing Bezier curves as in the text, with control points \({{\mathop{\rm q}\nolimits} _0},...,{{\mathop{\rm q}\nolimits} _3}\) and \({{\mathop{\rm r}\nolimits} _0},...,{{\mathop{\rm r}\nolimits} _3}\), respectively.

14.a. Justify each equal sign:

\(3\left( {{{\mathop{\rm r}\nolimits} _3} - {{\mathop{\rm r}\nolimits} _2}} \right) = z'\left( 1 \right) = .5x'\left( 1 \right) = \frac{3}{2}\left( {{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _3} - {{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _2}} \right)\)

b. Show that \({{\mathop{\rm r}\nolimits} _2}\) is the midpoint of the segment from \({{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _2}\) to \({{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _3}\).

c. Justify each equal sign: \(3\left( {{{\mathop{\rm r}\nolimits} _1} - {{\mathop{\rm r}\nolimits} _0}} \right) = z'\left( 0 \right) = .5x'\left( {.5} \right)\).

d. Use part (c) to show that \(8{{\mathop{\rm r}\nolimits} _1} = - {{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _0} - {{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _1} + {{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _2} + {{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _3} + 8{{\mathop{\rm r}\nolimits} _0}\).

e. Use part (d) equation (8), and part (a) to show that \({{\mathop{\rm r}\nolimits} _1}\) is the midpoint of the segment from \({{\mathop{\rm r}\nolimits} _2}\) to the midpoint of the segment from \({{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _1}\) to \({{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _2}\). That is, \({{\mathop{\rm r}\nolimits} _1} = \frac{1}{2}\left( {{{\mathop{\rm r}\nolimits} _2} + \frac{1}{2}\left( {{{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _1} + {{\mathop{\rm p}\nolimits} _2}} \right)} \right)\).

a. Compute the tangent vector \({\bf{x}}'\left( t \right)\) and determine how the derivatives \({\bf{x}}'\left( 0 \right)\) and \({\bf{x}}'\left( 1 \right)\) are related to the control points.
