Learning Objective 2.3B

Learning Objective 2.3B Students will be able to solve problems involving the slope of a tangent line.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We've done this quite a bit so far. I don't understand how it would even be possible to make it this far without talking about tangent lines. So this explanation will be brief.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Essential Knowledge 2.3B1 Students will know that the derivative at a point is the slope of the line tangent to a graph at that point on the graph.

Essential Knowledge 2.3B2 Students will know that the tangent line is the graph of a locally linear approximation of the function near the point of tangency.
