 METHODS OF DIFFERENTIATION
KEY CONCEPTS
1. DEFINITION :

f ( x + h) - f ( x )
If x and x + h belong to the domain of a function f defined by y = f (x), then Lim if it
h®0 h

dy
exists, is called the DERIVATIVE of f at x & is denoted by f ’ (x) or . we hav e therefore
dx

dy f ( x + h) - f(x)
D [f( x)] = f ' (x) = = y1 (x) = Lim
dx h ®0 h
f (a + h) - f(a)
2. The derivative of a given function f at a point x = a of its domain is defined as Lim ,
h ®0 h
prov i ded the lim it ex ists & is denoted by f ’ (a) . Not e that alternati v el y, we can def i ne

f(x) - f(a)
f' (a) = Lim , provided the limit exists
x ®a x-a
3. DERIVATIVE OF f (x) FROM THE FIRST PRINCIPLE / ab INITIO METHOD / DELTA METHOD:
dy f ( x + dx) - f (x ) dy
If f (x) is a deriv able function then, Lim = Lim = f ' ( x) =
dx ®0 dx dx ®0 dx dx
4. THEOREMS ON DERIVATIVES :

5. DERIVATIVE OF STANDARDS FUNCTIONS :

(a) Theorem : If the inverse functions f & g are defined by y = f (x) & x = g (y) & if f ’ (x)

exists & f ' ( x ) ¹ 0 then g ( y ) = ' . This result can also be written as , if exists &

7. LOGARITHMIC DIFFERENTIATION : To find the derivative of :
(i) A function which is the product or quotient of a number of function OR
(ii) A function of the f orm [f (x)] g (x) where f & g are both derivable, it will be found
conv enient to take the logarithm of the function first & then differentiate.This is called
LOGARITHMIC DIFFERENTIATION
8. IMPLICIT DIFFERENTIATION : f ( x , y ) = 0
(i) In order to find dy /dx, in the case of implicit functions, we differentiate each term w.r.t.
x regarding y as a functions of x & then collect terms in dy/dx together on one side
to finally find dy / dx
(ii) In answers of dy/dx in the case of implicit functions, both x & y are present.
9. PARAMETRIC DIFFERENTIATION :
dy dy / dq
If y = f ( x ) & x = g ( q) where q is a parameter , then = .
dx dx / dq
10. DERIVATIVE OF A FUNCTION W.R.T. ANOTHER FUNCTION :
dy dy / dx f ' ( x )
Let y= f (x) ; z = g (x) then = =
dz dz / dx g' ( x )
11. DERIVATIVE OF ORDER TWO & THREE : Let a function y = f (x) be defined on an open interval (a,
b) . It’s derivative, if it exists on (a, b) is a certain function f ' (x) [or (dy / dx) or y ’] & is called the first
derivative of y w. r. t. x. If it happens that the first derivative has a derivative on
(a , b) then this derivative is called second derivative of y w.r.t. x & is denoted by f ' ' (x) or
(d 2 y /dx 2 ) or y ' ' .
d3 y d æ d2 y ö
rd = ç ÷ It is also
dx 3 dx çè dx 2 ÷ø
Similarly, the 3 order derivative of y w.r.t x , if it exists , is defined by
denoted by f ' ' ' (x) or y ' ' '

f (x) g (x) h (x)

12. If F(x) = l ( x) m (x) n (x) , where f, g, h. l , m, n, u, v, w are differentiable functions of x
u (x) v (x) w (x)

f '(x) g'(x) h'(x) f ( x) g ( x) h ( x) f ( x) g ( x) h ( x)

then F ' (x) = l (x) m (x) n (x) + l' (x) m' (x) n' (x) + l ( x) m ( x) n ( x)
u (x) v (x) w (x) u ( x) v ( x) w ( x) u' (x) v' (x) w' (x)
