Tangent Zoom

Inspired by Marc Renault's use of the second graphics window for zooming. See his calculus applets at [url]http://webspace.ship.edu/msrenault/GeoGebraCalculus/GeoGebraCalculusApplets.html[/url]. This sketch zooms in on the tangent at a point, or just at a point on a graph. The left window controls the function graphed and the point on that curve. The right window controls the scale of the zoom.
