Mean value theorem or Lagrange.

Given any continuous function f on the interval [a, b] and differentiable on the open interval (a, b) then there exists at least one point c in the interval (a, b) such that the tangent to the curve c is parallel the secant line joining the points (a, f (a)) and (b, f (b)).
