Module 9 : Exponential, Logarithmic, Hyperbolic and Inverse Hyperbolic Functions
Course Title : Differential Calculus
Course Number : Math 111
Course Description : An introductory course covering the core concepts of limit,
continuity and differentiability of functions involving one or
more variables. This also includes the application of
differential calculations in solving on optimization, rate of
change, related rates, tangents and normal, and
approximations; partial differentiation and transcendental
curve tracing. .
Total Learning Time : 4 units (4 hours lecture per week)

Overview:
This chapter will introduce a basic review on exponential and logarithmic functions,
its properties and graphs. This will also introduce the basic formulas on the derivatives of
exponential and logarithmic functions and some applications. Proofs of these formulas will
also introduce. Also, this chapter will introduce a review on the basics of hyperbolic and
inverse hyperbolic functions, its properties and graphs. Also, this chapter will introduced the
basic derivative formulas of hyperbolic and inverse hyperbolic functions and some
applications. Proofs of these formulas will also introduce.

Exponential and Logarithmic Functions: A Review

The function 𝑦 = 𝑒 𝑥 is called the natural exponential or naperian logarithm. The

natural exponential is the inverse function of the natural logarithm.

In Calculus, the most convenient and useful from of logarithm is the natural
logarithm.
