    This document is a learning activity sheet for a basic calculus class providing instructions and problems to practice key concepts: 1) Students are asked to fill in blanks with terms about tangent lines - how they relate to curves and slopes. Tangent lines intersect curves at unique points and have slopes equal to the derivative of the function defining the curve. 2) Students then calculate derivatives of various functions at given points using the definition of the derivative. 3) Word problems follow requiring using derivatives to find equations of tangent and normal lines to curves at given points, and the average and instantaneous rates of change for a function over an interval and at a point.

    LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEET


    BASIC CALCULUS
    Quarter 3 Week 4
    Name: ____________________________________ Score: _______________
    Grade & Section: _________________________ Date: ________________

    Learning Competencies
    1. Illustrate the tangent line to the graph of a function at a given point.
    (STEM_BC11DIIIe-1)
    2. Define the properties of a tangent line to the graph of a function at a given point.
    3. Apply the definition of the derivative of a function at a given point.
    (STEM_BC11DIIIe-2)
    4. Relate the derivative of a function to the slope of the tangent line.
    (STEM_BC11DIIIe-3)
    5. Solve word problems involving the derivative of a function.

    Activity Proper
    I. Fill out the line with word/s to make the concepts about slopes of the tangent
    to a curve true.

    In Geometry, (1) ________________ is a line that intersects a circle at exactly one point.
    However, in cases where the curve is (2) ________________, a tangent may intersect a curve
    at different points. Thus, the slope of the tangent is not (3) ________________ and must be
    determined by a point.
    The tangent lines drawn at the maximum or minimum points are always (4)
    ________________. A tangent line is also tangent to the (5) ________________. Vertical tangents
    may also exist if the graph or function is (6) ________________. There are cases when a
    tangent line does not exist. First, if the function is (7) ________________ at x. Second, if the
    graph has a (8) ________________ or (9) ________________ at P.
    The precise definition of a tangent line relies on the notion of a (10) ________________
    line. It is the limiting position of the secant line as Q approaches P. The slope of the tangent
    line which is also the function’s (11) ________________ may be defined in symbols in two
    ways:
    (12) ________________ or (13) ________________
    The derivative of the function which is the slope of a tangent line to the graph of 𝑓(𝑥)
    is also interpreted as the (14) ________________. While the (15) ________________is defined as
    the ratio between the amount of change in one variable and the amount of change in
    another.

    II. For each of the following functions, find the indicated derivative using the
    definition.

    1. 𝑓(𝑥) = 5𝑥 + 12
    2. 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑥 2 − 4𝑥 + 1; 𝑓 ′ (2)

    III. Solve the following problems. Write your solutions and final answers on a
    separate sheet.

    1. Find the equations of the tangent and normal lines to the curve 𝑦 = 𝑥 2 + 2𝑥 + 3
    at 𝑥 = −1. (Note: A normal line is a line perpendicular to the tangent line at
    the point of tangency.)

    2. Find the equation of the tangent line to the curve 𝑦 = 𝑥 2 − 2𝑥 − 3 that is parallel
    to the line 𝑥 + 𝑦 = 1

    3. Find the equation of the tangent line to the curve 𝑦 = 𝑥 2 − 3𝑥 + 4 that is


    perpendicular to the line 𝑥 − 𝑦 = −1

    b. Find the instantaneous rate of change of y with respect to x at the point
    𝑥 = −1.
