Lesson 1: The Tangent and Velocity Problems

The document outlines the topics related to tangents and velocity problems in a math course, with specific homework assignments and class announcements. It discusses the definition of a tangent line in both general and specific contexts, emphasizing the concept of tangency as a local phenomenon where the slope of the tangent line matches that of the curve at the point of tangency. Additionally, it introduces the relationship between finding tangent lines and calculating rates of change, equating this process with the determination of velocities.
