Calculus I - 2.1.1 The Slope of the Tangent Line Using the Definition of Slope

In this video, we revisit our initial example in finding the slope of a secant line to estimate the slope of the tangent line at a point c. But since this is a Calculus course, we introduce the use of a limit as the distance between our desired point and the second point becomes increasingly small.
