Interpretation of the Derivative 2. f ( a ) is the instantaneous rate of change of f ( x ) at x = a . 3. If f ( x ) is the position of an object at time x then f ( a ) is the velocity of the object at x = a .
1. m = f ( a ) is the slope of the tangent line to y = f ( x ) at x = a and the equation of the tangent line at x = a is given by y = f ( a ) + f ( a )( x - a ) .
Higher Order Derivatives The Second Derivative is denoted as The n th Derivative is denoted as 2 d f dn f 2 n f ( x ) = f ( ) ( x ) = 2 and is defined as f ( ) ( x ) = n and is defined as dx dx , i.e. the derivative of the (n) f ( x ) = ( f ( x ) ) f ( x ) = f ( n -1) ( x ) , i.e. the derivative of first derivative, f ( x ) . the (n-1)st derivative, f ( n-1) x .

Implicit Differentiation Find y if e 2 x -9 y + x 3 y 2 = sin ( y ) + 11x . Remember y = y ( x ) here, so products/quotients of x and y will use the product/quotient rule and derivatives of y will use the chain rule. The trick is to differentiate as normal and every time you differentiate a y you tack on a y (from the chain rule).

Increasing/Decreasing Concave Up/Concave Down Critical Points Concave Up/Concave Down x = c is a critical point of f ( x ) provided either 1. If f ( x ) > 0 for all x in an interval I then 1. f ( c ) = 0 or 2. f ( c ) doesnt exist. f ( x ) is concave up on the interval I. Increasing/Decreasing 1. If f ( x ) > 0 for all x in an interval I then f ( x ) is increasing on the interval I. 2. If f ( x ) < 0 for all x in an interval I then f ( x ) is decreasing on the interval I. 3. If f ( x ) = 0 for all x in an interval I then f ( x ) is constant on the interval I. 2. If f ( x ) < 0 for all x in an interval I then f ( x ) is concave down on the interval I. Inflection Points x = c is a inflection point of f ( x ) if the concavity changes at x = c .

Absolute Extrema 1. x = c is an absolute maximum of f ( x ) if f ( c ) f ( x ) for all x in the domain. 2. x = c is an absolute minimum of f ( x ) if f ( c ) f ( x ) for all x in the domain. Fermats Theorem If f ( x ) has a relative (or local) extrema at x = c , then x = c is a critical point of f ( x ) . Extreme Value Theorem If f ( x ) is continuous on the closed interval
Extrema Relative (local) Extrema 1. x = c is a relative (or local) maximum of f ( x ) if f ( c ) f ( x ) for all x near c. 2. x = c is a relative (or local) minimum of f ( x ) if f ( c ) f ( x ) for all x near c. 1st Derivative Test If x = c is a critical point of f ( x ) then x = c is 1. a rel. max. of f ( x ) if f ( x ) > 0 to the left of x = c and f ( x ) < 0 to the right of x = c . 2. a rel. min. of f ( x ) if f ( x ) < 0 to the left of x = c and f ( x ) > 0 to the right of x = c . 3. not a relative extrema of f ( x ) if f ( x ) is the same sign on both sides of x = c . 2 Derivative Test If x = c is a critical point of f ( x ) such that f ( c ) = 0 then x = c 1. is a relative maximum of f ( x ) if f ( c ) < 0 . 2. is a relative minimum of f ( x ) if f ( c ) > 0 . 3. may be a relative maximum, relative minimum, or neither if f ( c ) = 0 . Finding Relative Extrema and/or Classify Critical Points 1. Find all critical points of f ( x ) . 2. Use the 1st derivative test or the 2 nd derivative test on each critical point.

Related Rates Sketch picture and identify known/unknown quantities. Write down equation relating quantities and differentiate with respect to t using implicit differentiation (i.e. add on a derivative every time you differentiate a function of t). Plug in known quantities and solve for the unknown quantity. Ex. Two people are 50 ft apart when one Ex. A 15 foot ladder is resting against a wall. The bottom is initially 10 ft away and is being starts walking north. The angle q changes at 0.01 rad/min. At what rate is the distance pushed towards the wall at 1 ft/sec. How fast 4 between them changing when q = 0.5 rad? is the top moving after 12 sec?

x is negative because x is decreasing. Using Pythagorean Theorem and differentiating, x 2 + y 2 = 152 2 x x + 2 y y = 0 After 12 sec we have x = 10 - 12 ( 1 ) = 7 and 4 so y = 152 - 7 2 = 176 . Plug in and solve for y . 7 7 ( - 1 ) + 176 y = 0 y = ft/sec 4 4 176
[ a, b ] , 3. f ( d )
is the abs. min. in [ a , b ] .
Finding Absolute Extrema To find the absolute extrema of the continuous function f ( x ) on the interval [ a , b ] use the following process. 1. Find all critical points of f ( x ) in [ a, b ] . 2. Evaluate f ( x ) at all points found in Step 1. 3. Evaluate f ( a ) and f ( b ) . 4. Identify the abs. max. (largest function value) and the abs. min.(smallest function value) from the evaluations in Steps 2 & 3.
We have q = 0.01 rad/min. and want to find x . We can use various trig fcns but easiest is, x x sec q = sec q tan q q = 50 50 We know q = 0.05 so plug in q and solve. x sec ( 0.5 ) tan ( 0.5 )( 0.01) = 50 x = 0.3112 ft/sec Remember to have calculator in radians!
Optimization Sketch picture if needed, write down equation to be optimized and constraint. Solve constraint for one of the two variables and plug into first equation. Find critical points of equation in range of variables and verify that they are min/max as needed. Ex. Were enclosing a rectangular field with Ex. Determine point(s) on y = x 2 + 1 that are 500 ft of fence material and one side of the closest to (0,2). field is a building. Determine dimensions that will maximize the enclosed area.

Maximize A = xy subject to constraint of x + 2 y = 500 . Solve constraint for x and plug into area. A = y ( 500 - 2 y ) x = 500 - 2 y = 500 y - 2 y 2 Differentiate and find critical point(s). A = 500 - 4 y y = 125 By 2nd deriv. test this is a rel. max. and so is the answer were after. Finally, find x. x = 500 - 2 (125 ) = 250 The dimensions are then 250 x 125.
constraint is y = x 2 + 1 . Solve constraint for x 2 and plug into the function. 2 x2 = y -1 f = x 2 + ( y - 2 ) = y -1 + ( y - 2 ) = y2 - 3 y + 3 Differentiate and find critical point(s). f = 2y -3 y=3 2 nd By the 2 derivative test this is a rel. min. and so all we need to do is find x value(s). x 2 = 3 - 1 = 1 x = 12 2 2

Here is partial fraction form and recombined.
Set numerators equal and collect like terms. 7 x 2 + 13x = ( A + B ) x 2 + (C - B ) x + 4 A - C Set coefficients equal to get a system and solve to get constants. A+ B =7 C - B = 13 4A-C = 0 A= 4 B=3 C = 16
outer radius : a - f ( x ) inner radius : a - g ( x )
outer radius: a + g ( x ) inner radius: a + f ( x )
radius : a - y width : f ( y ) - g ( y )
radius : a + y width : f ( y ) - g ( y )
An alternate method that sometimes works to find constants. Start with setting numerators equal in previous example : 7 x 2 + 13x = A ( x 2 + 4 ) + ( Bx + C ) ( x - 1) . Chose nice values of x and plug in. For example if x = 1 we get 20 = 5 A which gives A = 4 . This wont always work easily.
These are only a few cases for horizontal axis of rotation. If axis of rotation is the x-axis use the y = a 0 case with a = 0 . For vertical axis of rotation ( x = a > 0 and x = a 0 ) interchange x and y to get appropriate formulas.

With surface area you may have to substitute in for the x or y depending on your choice of ds to match the differential in the ds. With parametric and polar you will always need to substitute. Improper Integral An improper integral is an integral with one or more infinite limits and/or discontinuous integrands. Integral is called convergent if the limit exists and has a finite value and divergent if the limit doesnt exist or has infinite value. This is typically a Calc II topic. Infinite Limit 1. 3.
