In this video I show that the tangent vector (derivative of a vector function) is orthogonal or perpendicular to a vector of constant length. Geometrically this means that the curve is on the surface of a sphere, since it has a constant distant or radius from the origin. YouTube - Hive Notes - Sections playlist - Vector Functions playlist
