• Calculus (mathematics) I INTRODUCTION Limits This graph, which charts the function f(x)=1x, shows that the value of the function approaches zero as x becomes larger and larger.

  DerivativesThe derivative of a function at a given point is equal to the slope of the line that is tangent to the function at that givenpoint. In this example, the derivative of f(x) at x0 is defined as the slope of AB in the limit of h going to zero. As hbecomes increasingly smaller, B moves along the curve towards A, and AB increasingly approximates T, the tangent to thecurve at x0.© Microsoft Corporation. All Rights Reserved.
