Calculus. Basic dierentiation formulae: du dv d dv du d (u + v ) = + , (uv ) = u +v . dx dx dx dx dx dx d u 1 du dv = 2 v u , for v = 0. dx v v dx dx

Chain rule:

dz dy dz = . dx dy dx Fundamental Theorem of Calculus:


b

if F (x) = f (x) then


a

f (x)dx = F (b) F (a) and d dx


g ( x)

f (x)dx = F (x) + C

Dierentiation of limits of integral: Derivatives of specic functions:

h(u) du = h (g (x)) g (x) h (f (x)) f (x)

Basic integration formulae: Substitution:

f (u(x)) u (x) dx = F (u(x)) , where u dv = uv v du;

f (u)du = F (u);

Integration by parts: Standard integrals: xn dx =

xn+1 + C (n = 1); n+1

dx = ln |x| + C ; x

ex dx = ex + C ; tan x dx = ln | cos x| + C ;

sin x dx = cos x + C ;

cos x dx = sin x + C ;

dx xdx = Arcsin x + C ; = 1 x2 + C ; 1 x2 1 x2 x dx 1 dx = Arctan x + C ; = ln(1 + x2 ) + C 1 + x2 1 + x2 2 Rational with quadratic denominator: If the degree of the numerator is not smaller than the degree of the denominator, divide. If the denominator does not factor use above two integrals and substitution. If the denominator does factor, then write ax + b A B = + which is the same as: ax + b = A(x d) + B (x c) (x c)(x d) xc xd Set x=c then x=d to nd A and B, given a and b.
