3.4.3.3 Slope Tangent Coefficient The tangent option lets you find the modulus/slope using a point on the graph and a line segment drawn that is tangent to this point. And because you cannot draw a slope based on a single point, the tangent option includes an attribute called Leg Length. The Leg Length value is the number of data points on either end of the point you specified. Using these extra data points, a line segment can effectively be drawn in order to create a tangent line segment and resulting modulus.

The σ Pt coefficient is yellow indicating it is an “anchored coefficient” that is being used to calculate another coefficient, e.g. elastic.
Finds the slope that uses a point ( σ Pt). A line segment is created at this point that is 19 points in length (Leg Length).
The elastic is 290591.90 Mpa. The green line is the slope line.
