Differentiation Review 1 Name Differentiation Review, Part 1 (Part 2 follows; there are answers at the end of each part.) Derivatives Review: Summary of Rules Each derivative rule is summarized for you below. Write an example that would best exemplify each rule. 1. Power rule f (x) = ax b then f '(x) = a bx b-1 2. Constant rule f (x) = c then f '(x) = 0 3. Product rule y = f (x) g(x) then y'= f (x) g'(x) + g(x) f '(x) 4. Quotient rule y = f (x) g(x) then y'= g(x) f '(x) - f (x) g'(x) [g(x)] 2 Only use it when the denominator is a function of x; not for something like y = 2x - 5 3 5. Chain rule y = f (g(x)) then y'= f '(g(x)) g'(x) Or y = f (u) and u = g(x) then dy = dy du du or y'= f '(u) g'(x)
6. Logarithmic functions y = ln x then y'= 1 x Differentiation Review 2 more generally if y = lnu then dy = 1 u du 7. Exponential functions y = e x then y'= e x more generally if y = e u then dy = eu du 8. Trigonometric functions (You need to memorize the derivatives below.) d du d du sinu = cosu cosu = -sinu (You do NOT need to memorize the derivatives below.) d tanu = sec2 u du d cot u = -csc2 u du Examples: d du secu = sec utanu d du cscu = -csc ucot u
Differentiation Review 3 Important Techniques for Differentiation 1. Simplify first!!! y = x 2-3 x rewrite as y = x 4x 4-3 4 x - 1 2 y'= 1 4 + 3 8 x - 3 2 æ y = ln 1 ö ç è x 2 rewrite as y = ln1- ln( x 2 ) ø = 0-2ln ( x ) = 2 ln( x) 2. Implicit differentiation: when you cannot easily solve for y. Don t forget to use the product rule when necessary: x 2 + 2xy + 3y 2 = 7 2x + 2x dy dy + 2y + 6y = 0 2x dy dy + 6y = -2x - 2y dy -2x - 2y = 2x + 6y = -x - y x + 3y 3. Logarithmic differentiation: take the natural log of both sides, use the laws of logs to simplify, and then use implicit differentiation to find the derivative. y = 4 x sin x ln y = ln(4 x ) + ln( sin x ) = x ln 4 + 1 ln(sin x) 2 1 y dy = ln 4 + 1 2 1 sin x cos x dy æ cos x ö = y ln 4 + è 2sin xø dy = 4 x æ sin x ln 4 + 1 è 2 cot x ö ø
