Then we find the gradient between the two. (x, f(x)) ((x+h), f(x+h)) True gradient Approx gradient To find the gradient at any point on a curve we need to modify the gradient formula

5. www.mathsrevision.com The gradient is not exactly the same but is quite close to the actual value We can improve the approximation by making the value of h smaller This means the two points are closer together.
