Background

Definition of derivative
Definition
Derivative of a function f is another function f 0 whose value at any
number x
f (x + h) − f (x)
f 0 (x) = lim (1)
h→0 h
Example: Find f 0 (x) if f (x) = x 2 .

Answer
f (x + h) − f (x)
f 0 (x) = lim
h→0 h
(x + h)2 − x 2
= lim
h→0 h
2xh + h2
= lim
h→0 h
= 2x

Rules of Differentiation
Theorem (Power Rule)

If f (x) = x n , n is a real number, then f 0 (x) = nx n−1
Theorem (Constant Multiple Rule)

If k is a constant, and f is differentiable function, then
f 0 (kx) = kf 0 (x)
Theorem (Sum Rule)

If f and g are differential function, then
(f + g )0 (x) = f 0 (x) + g 0 (x)

Rules of Differentiation
Theorem (Difference Rule)

(f − g )0 (x) = f 0 (x) − g 0 (x)
Theorem (Product Rule)

(f ·g )0 (x) = f 0 (x)g (x) + f (x)g 0 (x)
Theorem (Quotient Rule)

f f 0 (x)g (x) − f (x)g 0 (x)

6 Find the equation of tangent line to y = x 2 + 2x + 2 at (1, 1)

Derivative of Trigonometric Function
Theorem (Quotient Rule)

The function f (x) = sin x and g (x) = cos x are both differentiable, and
f 0 (x) = cos x and g 0 = − sin x
Using the rule of derivative, find derivative
f (x) = tan x, g (x) = cot x, h(x) = sec x, k(x) = csc x

Chain Rule
The Chain Rule

If g is differentiable at x, and f is differentiable at g (x). Then the
composite function F = f ◦g defined by F = f (g (x)) is differentiable at x
and F 0 is given by
F 0 = f 0 (g (x))·g 0 (x)
In Leibnize notation, if y = f (u) and u=g(x) are both differentiable
functions, then
dy dy du
=
dx du dx

Example

2. g (x) = sin (2x + 3), let u = 2x + 3, so y = sin u

Hight Order Derivative
Let f (x) = x 5 + 2x 4 − 8x 3 + 3x 2
f 0 (x) = 5x 4 + 8x 3 − 24x 2 + 6x
f 00 (x) = 20x 3 + 24x 2 − 48x + 6
f 000 (x) = 60x 2 + 48x − 48

Maximum and Minimum
Definition
Let S domain f contain c. We say that
(i) f (c) is maximum value of f in S, if f (c)≥f (x) for all x in S
(ii) f (c) is minimum value of f in S, if f (c)≤f (x) for all x in S
(iii) f (c) is extreme value of f on S, if it is either the maximum value or
the minimum value
Theorem (Critical Point Theorem)

Let f defined on interval I containing the point c. If c is extreme values,
then c must be a critical point, that is, either c is
(i) an end point of I
(ii) a stationary point of f , that is, f 0 (c) = 0
(iii) a singular point of f , that is, f 0 (c) does not exist

Example
Find the maximum and minimum values
(a) f (x) = x 2 on [−3, 3]
(b) f (x) = −2x 3 + 3x 2 on [−1/2, 2]
Answer
(a) f (x) = x 2 on [−3, 3]. f 0 (x) = 2x. Stationary point x=0. Critical points -3,0,3.
f (−3) = 9, f (0) = 0, f (3) = 9. Thus, the maximum value of f is 9 and the
minimum is 0.
(b) f (x) = −2x 3 + 3x 2 on [−1/2, 2]. f 0 (x) = −6x 2 + 6x = 6x(1 − x). Stationary
point x=0,1. Critical points −1/2, 0, 1, 2.
f (−1/2) = 1, f (0) = 0, f (1) = 1, f (2) = −4. Thus the maximum value of x is
1 and the minimum is -4.

Exercise
