Epsilon-Delta Definition of Limit

This activity is based on a worksheet and set of Desmos graphs by Geoff Patterson at University of Hawaii at Manoa, Mathematics Department. There is an accompanying worksheet that goes with this activity on which students find delta in terms of epsilon. The worksheet was adapted from one of Geoff Patterson's. There is a worksheet that goes with this activity in which students have to fill in tables showing decreasing delta values as epsilon gets smaller. After a bit of work using the sliders, students solve for delta in terms of epsilon. If you would like the worksheet, contact me @kvdspek
