314 1001 Solved Problems in Engineering Mathematics by Tiong & Rojas DAY 13 The term “Calculus” was derived from a Latin word “calx” which means “stone” and from a Greek word “chalis" which means “limestone”. In 1684, a German mathematician and philosopher Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz published his early work on calculus, while an English astronomer, physicist and mathematician Isaac Newton made an early study on the subject in 1665 but did not published hie work until 1704. These two mathematiciane are now concidered ac tho founders of today's calculus. ‘The subject Calculus is divided into four areas namely, differential calculus, integral calculus, differential equations and calculus of variation. Differential Calculus is a branch of mathematics which deals with derivatives and limits. A. Algebraic Functions: B.

Stationary points — critical points at which the derivative does not exist (and so equals zero). Did pou now that... the most proved theorem in Mathematics is the Pythagorean Theorem which has mote than 370 different proofs! All the 370 different proofs are found in the book entitled, “The Pythagorean Proposition” which was published in 1940. Proceed to the next page for your 13 test.
