Definitions and Notations Let y be a function of x. If we differentiate » with respect to x once, we get &. & is known as first differential coefficient or first derivative or first derived function of y with respect to x. In general #4 is a function of x and dx therefore can further be differentiated. The differential coefficient of dy/dx with respect to x is known as second differential coefficient or second derivative or second derived function of y with respect to x and is written as 2 2 @°Y Simitarly, the differential coefficient of 2% is called the shird de ax 3 differential coefficient of y and is written as i Similarly fourth, fifth, ....etc. dty dy differential coefficients are obtained and are written as a a re etc, respectively. The alt differential coefficient of y with respect to x is denoted by a’y a” If y = (x), then its successive derivatives are denoted by dy d?y d?y a’ dae ae ae or Vio Yan Vaeeeey Yaw ee or yy or f'@F “os A) SOs or Dy, D’y, Dy, ..., Dy, «.. or Dflx), D°f{), D?

The process of differentiating the same function again and again is called Successive Differentiation. 2 Differential Calculus The derivatives obtained during this process are called successive derivatives. If y = f(a), then the value of at x= is denoted by (a) or (nkk=a OF (Yn) a or f"(a). ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLES Example 1.

Decomposition into Sum or Difference of Standard Forms Sometimes it is not possible to find the nth derivative of the function in its given form. In such cases, we try to decompose them into sum or difference of suitable standard functions and then we find out the nth derivative. 16 Differential Calculus 1.4, Use of Partial Fractions The nth differential coefficient of a rational algebraic fraction can be conveniently determined by first resolving them into partial fractions which reduce them to standard forms. Then we can conveniently apply the standard results to find the mth derivative of the given function. 1.5. Use of De-Moivre’s Theorem Sometimes the denominator of the algebraic fraction cannot be resolved into real linear factors. In such cases we resolve the denominator into imaginary factors. The factors which are imaginary are then put into the form ¥ (cos 8 + i sin 8) and De-Moivre’s theorem is applied to simplify the result. 1.6. Trigonometrical Transformations A function of the form sin" x cos” x can be expressed as sum of sines and cosines of multiple angles by wigonometrical substitutions.

Infinite Series We have seen that the ordinary processes of addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, rearrangement of terms, raising to a given power, taking limits, differentiation, etc., though applicable to the sum of a finite number of terms, may break down for infinite series. The expansions in the form of infinite series obtained by the methods given below are therefore to be regarded as formal expansions, which may not be true in exceptional cases, 2.2. Maclaurin’s Theorem Statement: If f(x) is a continuous function of x, which can be expanded in ascending powers of x and each term of the expansion can be differentiated any number of times, then x x x" F(x) = FO) + af O) + 55 F" O) + FF O) + +P" (O) +... ad. ing Proof: Let f(x) = Ao + A1x+Azx’ +Agx°+Aax'+...

If a function is differentiable for every point of a given interval. then it must be continuous in that interval, é.2., differentiability = continuity. 3.2, Alternative Form of Rolle’s Theorem STATEMENT : If a function f (x) is such that (i) itis continuous in the interralasxsat+h, (ti) it is differentiable in the interval a The function is not differentiable in the interval [-1, 1]. Therefore Rolle’s theorem cannot be applied for the function f(x) =| x | in the interval [ =1, 1}. Example 2. Verify Rolle’s theorem for the function f() = x7 in (-1, 1). Solution: Here, f@wexr,a=-1b=1. @) f(a) = (-1)?=1 and fie)=P=1 : f(a) = f(b) (ii) Since every polynomial in x is a continuous function of x for every finite value of x, hence, f(x) is continuous in the closed interval {-1, 1]. (iii) f’ (x) =2x which exists for every value of x in the open interval (-1,1). Hence, f (x) satisfies all the three conditions of Rolle’s theorem.
