DIFFERENTIATION
Notes
The differential calculus was introduced sometime during 1665 or 1666, when Isaac Newton
first concieved the process we now know as differentiation (a mathematical process and it yields
a result called derivative). Among the discoveries of Newton and Leibnitz are rules for finding
derivatives of sums, products and quotients of composite functions together with many other
results. In this lesson we define derivative of a function, give its geometrical and physical
interpretations, discuss various laws of derivatives and introduce notion of second order derivative
of a function.
OBJECTIVES
After studying this lesson, you will be able to :
define and interpret geometrically the derivative of a function y = f(x) at x = a;
prove that the derivative of a constant function f(x) = c, is zero;
find the derivative of f (x) x n , n Q from first principle and apply to find the derivatives
of various functions;
find the derivatives of the functions of the form cf(x), f x g x and polynomial functions;
state and apply the results concerning derivatives of the product and quotient of two functions;
state and apply the chain rule for the derivative of a function;
find the derivative of algebraic functions (including rational functions); and
find second order derivative of a function.

numbers (increments), the ratio of these small numbers approaches a definite value 10.
x
In general, let us consider a function
y f (x) ...(i)
To find its derivative, consider x to be a small change in the value of x, so x x will be the
new value of x where f (x) is defined. There shall be a corresponding change in the value of y.
Denoting this change by y ; y + y will be the resultant value of y, thus,
y y f (x x) ...(ii)
Subtracting (i) from (ii), we have,
(y y) y f (x x) f (x)
or y f (x x) f (x) ...(iii)
To find the rate of change, we divide (iii) by x
y f (x x) f (x)
...(iv)

Lastly, we consider the limit of the ratio as x 0 .

Now we make t smaller to obtain average velocity in smaller interval near P. The limit of average
velocity as t 0 is the instantaneous velocity of the particle at time t (at the point P).

It is denoted by .

Thus, if f (t) gives the distance of a moving particle at time t, then the derivative of 'f' at t t 0
represents the instantaneous speed of the particle at the point P i.e. at time t t 0 .

Note : The derivative represents instantaneous rate of change of y w.r.t. x.

MODULE - VIII 26.7 ALGEBRA OF DERIVATIVES
Calculus
Many functions arise as combinations of other functions. The combination could be sum,
difference, product or quotient of functions. We also come across situations where a given
function can be expressed as a function of a function.
In order to make derivative as an effective tool in such cases, we need to establish rules for
Notes finding derivatives of sum, difference, product, quotient and function of a function. These, in
turn, will enable one to find derivatives of polynomials and algebraic (including rational) functions.
h '(x) lim
f (x x) g(x x) f (x) g(x)
Hence
x 0 x
lim
f (x x) f (x) g(x x) g(x)
x 0 x
f (x x) f (x) g(x x) g(x)
lim
x 0 x x
f x x f x g x x g x
lim lim
x 0 x x 0 x
or h ' x f ' x g ' x
Thus we see that the derivative of sum of two functions is sum of their derivatives.
This is called the SUM RULE.
e.g. y x 2 x3
d d
Then y'
dx

dx

2x 3x 2
Thus y ' 2x 3x 2
This sum rule can easily give us the difference rule as well, because
if h x f x g x

i.e. the derivative of difference of two functions is the difference of their derivatives.
