MATH 151, Fall 2013, Week 10-2, Section 4.5, 4.6 Recall the derivative of logarithmic and exponential functions. Theorem 1 (ln x) = (ln f(x)) = (log a x) = (log a f(x)) = Theorem 2 (a x ) = (a f(x) ) = Section 4.5 Exponential Growth/Decay In many natural phenomena, quantities grow or decay at a rate proportional to the size. For instance, if f(t) is the number of population of a certain animals or bacteria at time t, it seems reasonable to expect that the rate of growth f (t) is proportional to the population f(t) under ideal conditions; that is f (t) = k f(t), for some constant k Actually the above model provides fairly accurate prediction in many areas such as nuclear physics, chemistry, finance, etc. Theorem If a function f(t) satisfies then it is of the form f(t) = A e kt, for some constants A, k Note that the initial quantity is determined by f(0) = A e 0 =. Useful fact: e ln a =. For example, e (ln 5.4)t =. 1

Newton s Law of Cooling states that the rate of cooling of an object is proportional to the temperature difference between the object and the surroundings. (we assume the temperature of surroundings does not change) Ex 4. Suppose you are having a cup of coffee which takes half an hour to cool from 190 F to 110 F in a room that is kept at 70 F. (a) What was the temperature of the coffee after 15 minutes? (b) How long will it take the coffee to cool down 80 F. 4
Ex 5. A roast turkey is taken from an oven when its temperature has reached 185 F and is placed on a table in a room where the temperature is 75 F.

Section 4.6 Inverse Trigonometric Functions Sketch graphs of the following functions y = sin x y = cos x y = tan x. They are not one-to-one, find restricted domains to make them one-to-one. For those restricted domain, find the corresponding ranges.

Constructing a triangle Suppose sin 1 x = y. Consider a right triangle below. sin 1 x = y sin y = x, so y is an angle. Set A = y. Convention: hypotenuse = 1 sin y = x height = x. A Use Pythagorean thm to label the base. Now one can calculate cos y and tan y. cos y = tan y = Ex 11. Simplify the expression tan(sin 1 x). Ex 11-1. Simplify the expression tan(cos 1 x). A 9
Derivative of Inverse Trig. Functions To find d dx (sin 1 x), set sin 1 x = y. So we have sin y = x Apply implicit differentiation to the above to obtain cos y dy dx = 1 or dy dx = 1 cos y. One can construct a triangle for sin 1 x = y, to show cos y = (sin 1 x) = 1 cos y =.. (Ex 11.) So For d dx (cos 1 x) we can start with cos 1 x = y (cos y = x) to have From Ex 11-1, we know sin y = sin y dy dx = 1 or dy dx = 1 sin y (cos 1 x) =. So 1 sin y =. Similarly we also have tan 1 x = y tan y = x dy dx = 1 sec 2 y = cos2 y =. Theorem (sin 1 x) = (cos 1 x) = (tan 1 x) = 10
