<span>The
secant line is a line that connects two points on the graph of a
function. The tangent line is the line that is basically the slope of a
function at a given point. (So secant line is the slope of a line
through TWO points, tangent line is slope of a function at ONE point)
The derivative finds the slop at any given point on a function.
Basically the derivative is the tangent line at ANY point given for the
function f(x). </span>
