title: Transcendental curve
text: In analytical geometry, a transcendental curve is a curve that is not an algebraic curve. Here for a curve, C, what matters is the point set underlying C, not a given parametrisation. For example, the unit circle is an algebraic curve; the usual parametrisation by trigonometric functions may involve those transcendental functions, but certainly the unit circle is defined by a polynomial equation. The properties of algebraic curves, such as Bézout's theorem, give rise to criteria for showing curv
