  2. Sec 2.1:The Tangent Problem (Example 1) (x1, y1) (x2, y2) Slope and Equation of a line How to find the slop of a line? How to find the equation of a line?

  3. Sec 2.1:The Tangent Problem (Example 1) Tangent line Secant line What is the difference ?? Lines?? a line joining two points of a curve is a secant to the curve. The wordtangentis derived from the Latin word tangens, which means “touching.” slope of a curve at a pointP on the curve? the slope of the tangent at P.
