Derivative of a Function as Slope of Tangent Line

Author:
Jill, Sue Popelka
Topic:
Derivative
Move Point A to show how the slope of the tangent line changes. The slope of the tangent line is traced in blue. So the derivative of the red function is the blue function. You can try another function by entering it in the "Input" box at the bottom of the applet. Start with "f (x) = "
