AP Calculus Assignments: Derivative Techniques

Check your derivative function by asking for the derivative of f(x) under the Graph menu. Using the same process as above, construct a secant-tangent line to the general cosine function g(x)= a•cos(b•x+c) (the light blue curve in figure 11.6). Plot the slope of this line as x varies. Make a conjecture about the derivative of the cosine ... ................
