This example demonstrates how to trace the derivatives of a function. It involves key concepts such as derivatives and limits. Using GeoGebra commands like Point, Tangent, and Slope, the construction of the function and its derivative is shown. Suitable for high school and above students learning calculus.

GeoGebra Commands & Parameters

  1. Point(f) → F

  6. Tangent(H, h) → l
  7. Tangent(I, i) → m
  8. Slope(k) → m_2
  9. Slope(l) → m_3
  10. Slope(m) → m_4
  11. Tangent(F, f) → j
  12. Slope(j) → m_1
