Derivative graphs interactive

By Murray Bourne, 21 Nov 2012

I recently added a new interactive graph which lets you explore the changing slope of a few different curves as you change x-values.

Check out:

Derivatives Graphs

Let me know what you think in the comments. Any suggestions?

    If you want to be able to change the function you might like the version at http://qpr.ca/math/applets/DerivGraph/.

    Thanks Alan. Good to hear from you. Yah, I'll try to add the option for the user to enter their own function. I have to sort out the scaling so their graph is in view, but can be done. Providing limited choices is easier to control πŸ™‚

    @Palfes: Perhaps these 3 chapters my help:

    Introduction to Differentiation

    Applications of Differentiation

    Differentiation of Transcendental Functions

HTML: You can use simple tags like <b>, <a href="...">, etc.

To enter math, you can can either:

  1. Use simple calculator-like input in the following format (surround your math in backticks, or qq on tablet or phone):
    `a^2 = sqrt(b^2 + c^2)`
    (See more on ASCIIMath syntax); or
  2. Use simple LaTeX in the following format. Surround your math with \( and \).
    \( \int g dx = \sqrt{\frac{a}{b}} \)
    (This is standard simple LaTeX.)

NOTE: You can mix both types of math entry in your comment.
