What have you learned from our last discussion?
What did you remember about types of discontinuity?
How can we say that the functions have a removable
discontinuity? Jump essential discontinuity? Infinite
discontinuity?
Very Good! I am glad that all of you learned from our

discussion last time.
E. Motivation
WHAT IS YOUR IDEA?
Are your familiar with the word “tangent
line”? What did you know about a
tangent line, or where did you first hear
about a tangent? Kindly write your idea
on the board. One idea is equivalent to
one badge.
Possible answers:
a. line which touches the graph at
only one point
b. line touching a circle at one point
c. trigonometric function tangent
(and cotangent) (from some
dictionaries) touching but not
intersecting (cutting through)
d. right beside
e. limiting position of a secant line
f. tangent comes from the Latin
word tángere meaning “to touch”
(cf. Noli me Tángere)
Lesson Proper
HOW TO DRAW TANGENT LINES TO CURVES
AT A POINT
The definition of a tangent line is not very easy to explain

without involving limits. Students can imagine that locally;
the curve looks like an arc of a circle. Hence, they can
draw the tangent line to the curve as they would to a circle.

Contact No.: (63) 0998 997 6778 | (043) 784 0955
One more
way to see this is to choose the line through a point that
locally looks most like the curve. Among all the lines
through a point (c , f ( c ) ) the one which best approximates
the curve y=f ( x ) near the point (c , f ( c ) ) is the tangent
line to the curve at that point.
THE TANGENT LINE DEFINED MORE

FORMALLY
The precise definition of a tangent line relies on the notion
of a secant line. Let C be the graph of a continuous
function y=f (x ) and let P be a point on C. A secant line
to y=f ( x ) through P is any line connecting P and another
point Q on C. In the figure on the right, the line P Q is a
secant line of y=f ( x )through P.

Contact No.: (63) 0998 997 6778 | (043) 784 0955
We now
construct the tangent line to y=f ( x ) at P.
Choose a point Q on the right side of P, and connect the
two points to construct the secant line PQ .
Choose another point Q 1 in between P and Q. Connect the
two points P and Q 1 to construct the secant line P Q 1 .
Choose another point Q 2 in between P and Q 1.
Construct the secant line P Q 2.
Consider
also the case when Q is to the left of P and perform the
same process. Intuitively, we can define the tangent line
through P to be the limiting position of the secant lines
PQas the point Q (whether to the left or right of P)
approaches P.
If the sequence of secant lines to the graph of y=f (x )

through P approaches one limiting position (in
consideration of points Q to the left and from the right of
P), then we define this line to be the tangent line to
y=f ( x ) at P.

Contact No.: (63) 0998 997 6778 | (043) 784 0955
We summarize below the definitions of the secant line

through a point, and the tangent line at a point of the graph
of y=f (x ).
Definition
Let C be the graph of a continuous function y=f (x ) and
let P be a point on C.
1. A secant line to y=f ( x ) through P is any line
connecting P and another point Q on C.
2. The tangent line to y=f ( x )at P is the limiting
position of all secant lines PQ as Q → P .
A. Activity
Construct tangent lines at the labeled points.
B. Analysis
Recall the slope of the line passing through two points (

x 0 , y 0 ¿ and ( x , y ) .
y− y 0
m l=
x−x 0
Recall the point-slope form of the equation of the line with

slope m and passing through the point P(x 0 , y 0 ).
y− y 0=m(x−x 0 )
Equation of the Tangent Line

To find the equation of the tangent line to the graph of

Contact No.: (63) 0998 997 6778 | (043) 784 0955
y=f (x ) at the point P(x 0 , y 0), follow this 2-step
process:
a. Get the slope of the tangent line by computing
y− y 0 f ( x )−f (x 0 )
m= lim or m= lim
x→ x x−x 0
0 x→ x 0
x−x 0
b. Substitute this value of m and the known point
P(x 0 , y 0) into the point-slope form to get
y− y 0=m(x−x 0 )
Example 1: Find the equation of the tangent line to y=x 2

at x 0=2.
Given: x 0=2 y=f ( x )=x
2
y 0=f ( x 0 )=4
y− y 0
m= lim
x→ x x−x 0

¿ lim
x→ x x−2

( x−2)(x +2)
¿ lim
x→ x0
x −2
¿ lim x +2=2+2
x→ x 0
m=4
y− y 0=m ( x−x 0 )
y−4=4 ( x −2 )
y−4=4 x −8
y=4 x−8+ 4
y=4 x−4
The equation of the tangent line with the slope m=4 and
passing through P (2,4) is
y−4=4 ( x −2 )∨ y=4 x−4
EXAMPLE 2: Show that the tangent line to

2
y=3 x −12 x+ 1 at the point (2, -11) is horizontal.
Given: x 0=2 y 0=−11

y− y 0 (3 x ¿¿ 2−12 x +1)−(−11)
m=lim =¿ lim ¿¿
x →2 x−x 0 x →2 x−2

3(x −4 x +4 )
¿ lim
x →2 x−2
¿ lim ( 3 ( x−2 ) )=0
x →2
Recall that a horizontal line has zero slope. Since the slope
of the tangent line is 0, it must be horizontal. Its equation
is
y− (−11)=0 ( x−2 )∨ y=−11
C. Abstraction

graph of y=f (x ) at the point P(x 0 , y 0)?
