This example demonstrates how to dynamically show the derivative of a function at a point, which is the slope of the tangent line. Key math concepts include derivatives, tangents, slopes, and loci. Construction highlights involve using GeoGebra commands/objects like Point, Tangent, Slope, and Locus. Suitable for high school and above students learning calculus to understand the geometric meaning and dynamic behavior of derivatives.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Point(f) → A
  2. Tangent(A, f) → g
  3. Slope(g) → m
  4. Locus(B, A) → loc1
