Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: A curve demonstrating the limiting chord process of differentiation (finding the slope) of a curve by first principles. The formula is:
The red line represents the line AB, while the green line represents the tangent at A. As B gets closer to A and h gets smaller, the line AB approaches the actual tangent.

The First Principles Formula is used to find the gradient of the curve at any point.It might interest you to know that this is actually the formula that was used to generate or develop other formula in Calculus.
