The Concept of Derivative
Loading the math board and drawing, please wait…
This example introduces the concept of derivative by demonstrating the instantaneous rate of change of a function at a point. Using GeoGebra commands such as Line and Segment, it visually explains the meaning of the derivative as a limiting value. Suitable for high school mathematics education and learning.
