This example dynamically demonstrates the relationship between a function and its derivatives, visually illustrating the geometric meaning of derivatives. It involves core math concepts like functions, derivatives, geometric transformations, and 3D shapes. Constructed using GeoGebra commands for the original function f, its first derivative f', and second derivative f''. Suitable for high school students and calculus beginners to learn derivative properties and graphical transformations.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Derivative(f) → f'
  2. Derivative(f, 2) → f''
