Vector bundles | Differential topology
In differential geometry, the tangent bundle of a differentiable manifold is a manifold which assembles all the tangent vectors in . As a set, it is given by the disjoint union of the tangent spaces of . That is, where denotes the tangent space to at the point . So, an element of can be thought of as a pair , where is a point in and is a tangent vector to at . There is a natural projection defined by . This projection maps each element of the tangent space to the single point . The tangent bundle comes equipped with a natural topology (described in a section ). With this topology, the tangent bundle to a manifold is the prototypical example of a vector bundle (which is a fiber bundle whose fibers are vector spaces). A section of is a vector field on , and the dual bundle to is the cotangent bundle, which is the disjoint union of the cotangent spaces of . By definition, a manifold is parallelizable if and only if the tangent bundle is trivial. By definition, a manifold is if and only if the tangent bundle is stably trivial, meaning that for some trivial bundle the Whitney sum is trivial. For example, the n-dimensional sphere Sn is framed for all n, but parallelizable only for n = 1, 3, 7 (by results of Bott-Milnor and Kervaire). (Wikipedia).
I will introduce the tangent bundle of a smooth manifold, from the point of view of function calculus on a manifold. At the end I show that the tangent bundle is a smooth manifold. A good reference to learn this is do Carmo's "Differential Forms and Applications" Chapter 3. Please like a

What is a Manifold? Lesson 13: The tangent bundle - an illustration. Here we have a close look at a complete example using the tangent bundle of the manifold S_1. Next lesson we look at the Mobius strip as a fiber bundle.

Tangent Tangent Angle Theorems - Circles & Arc Measures - Geometry
This geometry video tutorial provides a basic introduction into tangent tangent angle theorems as it relates to circles and arc measures. The sum of the minor arc and the tangent tangent angle is supplementary. The two angles add up to 180. This tutorial contains plenty of examples and

The TRUTH about TENSORS, Part 8: Tangent bundles & vector fields
In this video, we discuss the definition of the tangent bundle of a manifold, which in turns inspires the more general definition of vector bundles, to be discussed in the next video. The notion of tangent bundle, further lets us formalize our intuitive notion of vector fields.

The Tangent Line and the Derivative (Calculus)
In calculus, you’ll often hear “The derivative is the slope of the tangent line.” But what is a tangent line? The definition is trickier than you might think. Tangent lines are important because they are the best way to approximate a curve using a line. We can then use the slope of the
