This example demonstrates the relationship between a function's graph and its first derivative. Core concepts include calculus, derivatives, polynomial functions, and geometric transformations. Construction involves using the Derivative command to compute f', an InputBox for user-defined function f, and Textfield with LaTeX to display f' and parameter a. Suitable for high school or college calculus students to visualize derivative properties and function behavior.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Textfield(f) → InputBox1
  2. Derivative(f) → f'
  3. LaTeX(f', true, true) → text1
  4. LaTeX(f, true, true) → text2
