This free derivative of a function worksheet helps AP Calculus AB students understand the derivative as a slope and an instantaneous rate of change. The 10-page printable PDF covers secant and tangent slopes, estimating derivatives from tables, and finding derivatives using the limit definition.
Students also write tangent line equations, use derivative notation, read derivatives from graphs, match and sketch graphs of f and f′, estimate velocity from position data, and find one-sided derivatives. Mixed review, a challenge problem and a graphing challenge make it ideal for Unit 2 classwork, homework or AP exam review.
