### Quadratic curves: linear derivatives.
The derivative of a quadratic Bézier curve is a linear Bézier curve, interpolating between just two terms, which means finding the solution for "where is this line 0" is effectively trivial by rewriting it to a function of `t` and solving. First we turn our cubic Bézier function into a quadratic one, by following the rule mentioned at the end of the [derivatives section](#derivatives):
