Lesson 10- Rules of Differentiation
DESIRED LEARNING OUTCOMES
At the end of the lesson, the students should be able
to:
❖state and use the definition of derivative to
differentiate functions;
❖differentiate functions by using the rules for
differentiation, i.e., the power, product, quotient and
chain rules;
❖determine the higher derivatives of functions
❖differentiate functions implicitly; and
❖solve derivative-related problems (rates of change
and related rates).
