This method is also known as point elasticity method because we can measure the elasticity of demand at any point on the demand curve. For this, first of all we have to draw a tangent from that point and extend it leftward and rightwards until it intersect X and Y axis. With the help of following formula we can calculate elasticity of demand of various point
