This GeoGebra applet demonstrates the product rule for derivatives, showing step-by-step computation of the derivative of a product of two functions. Users input functions for u and v, and the applet uses commands like Factor and Simplify to display symbolic derivation (udvdx + vdu/dx). It visualizes differentiation, symbolic simplification, and the product rule structure, making it suitable for calculus students and educators exploring derivative rules and symbolic computation.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Factor(v'(x)) → v'
  2. Factor(u'(x)) → u'
  3. Textfield(u) → inputBox1
  4. Textfield(v) → inputBox2
  5. Simplify(v') → v_1
  6. Simplify(Expand[v']) → v_2
  7. Simplify(udvdx(x) + vdudx(x)) → f_2
