Investigate the derivative of sine
Move point A along the sine curve. Notice that the slope of the tangent is shown below. Use graph paper and plot the points where the x-coordinate is the x-coordinate of A, but the y-coordinate is the slope of the tangent. Now click on Trace and as you move along the curve, the ordered pairs that you graphed will trace along the curve. What is the traced curve?
