This example illustrates the definition of a derivative. It shows the slope of the tangent line at a point on a function, involving key concepts such as derivatives and tangents. It uses GeoGebra commands like Line, Slope, Tangent, and Textfield. Suitable for high school math education and learning derivative concepts.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Line(A, B) → a
  2. Slope(a) → m
  3. Tangent(A, f) → b
  4. Line(C, A) → d
  5. Slope(d) → m_1
  6. Textfield(x_1) → inputBox1
  7. Textfield(f) → inputBox2
