Lesson 3.2
Tangent
Lines and Linear Approximations
|
What this
lesson is about
A tangent line to a curve
"touches" it a some point. In this section, you will learn to
- find tangent lines and
normal lines using derivatives
- use tangent lines to
approximate curves near a point on them
- use a linear approximation
to extimate errors in the calculated value of a function.
This lesson should take
you P - Q hours to complete.
