𝑓(𝑥)−𝑓(𝑐)
Proof : - We Observe that , L.H.Dat x=c = limx→c-
𝑥−𝑐

Now x → c－ ⇒ x + h = c ⇒ x = c − h or x − c = −h

|𝑥−𝑐|−|𝑐−𝑐| |−h|−|0| h
∴ L. H. Dat x=c = limx→c− = limh→0 = = −1
𝑥−𝑐 −h −h

𝑓(𝑥)−𝑓(𝑐)
Also we know, R.H.Dat x=c = limx→c+
𝑥−𝑐

Now x → c + ⇒ x − h = c ⇒ x = c + h or x − c = h

|𝑥−𝑐|−|𝑐−𝑐| |+h|−|0| h
∴ R. H. Dat x=c = limx→c+ = limh→0 = =1
𝑥−𝑐 h h

∵ L. H. D. ≠ R. H. D. , f(x) is not differentiable at x = c.
