PREFACE
T his book is meant for students who aspire to join the Indian Institute of Technologies (IITs) and various other engi-
neering institutes through the JEE Main and Advanced examinations. The content has been devised to cover the syllabi
of JEE and other engineering entrance examinations on the topic Differential Calculus. The book will serve as a text book
as well as practice problem book for these competitive examinations.
As a tutor with more than eighteen years of teaching this topic in the coaching institutes of Kota, I have realised
the need for a comprehensive textbook in this subject.
I am grateful to McGraw-Hill Education for providing me an opportunity to translate my years of teaching experience
into a comprehensive textbook on this subject.
This book will help to develop a deep understanding of Differential Calculus through graphs and problem solving.
The detailed table of contents will enable teachers and students to easily access their topics of interest.
Each chapter is divided into several segments. Each segment contains theory with illustrative examples. It is followed
by Concept Problems and Practice Problems, which will help students assess the basic concepts. At the end of the theory
portion, a collection of Target Problems have been given to develop mastery over the chapter.
The problems for JEE Advanced have been clearly indicated in each chapter.
The collection of objective type questions will help in a thorough revision of the chapter. The Review Exercises
contain problems of a moderate level while the Target Exercises will assess the students’ ability to solve tougher problems.
For teachers, this book could be quite helpful as it provides numerous problems graded by difficulty level which can be
given to students as assignments.
I am thankful to all teachers who have motivated me and have given their valuable recommendations. I thank my
family for their whole-hearted support in writing this book. I specially thank Mr. Devendra Kumar and Mr. S. Suman for
their co-operation in bringing this book.
Suggestions for improvement are always welcomed and shall be gratefully acknowledged.

Example 1: Evaluate lim = = .
x→2 x−2 x2 −1 ( x + 1)( x − 1) x +1
Solution: Consider the function f defined by So the behaviour of (x3–1)/(x2–1) for x near 1, but not equal to

The domain of f is the set of all real numbers except 2, which x3 − 1 x2 + x + 1 .

for f(x) yields the undefined term .

On the other hand, x 2 – 3x + 2 = (x – 1) (x – 2) and

The graph of the function y = x – 1 is a straight line L; so the follows that lim = .
x →1 x 2 − 1 2
graph of f(x) is the line L with a hole at the point (2, 1).
We can also express this as follows:

As x → 1, 2 → .
x −1 2
Example 3: Find the limit of the function

f (x) = as x→ 0.
2 − x , x ≥ 0
Solution: Using the graph of y = f(x), we see that the
function approaches 1 as x approaches 0 from the left of 0. Also
the function approaches 2 as x approaches 0 from the right of 0.

numbers x so that the distance between f(x) and is smaller
than ε.
ε − δ definition
Let f be a function defined on an open interval containing a
except possibly at a and let be a real number. The statement
lim f(x) = means that for each ε > 0 there exists a δ > 0 such
x →a
that if 0 < |x – a| < δ, then |f(x) – | < ε.
The inequality 0 < |x – a | that appears in the definition is just
a fancy way of saying “x is not a.” The inequality |x – a | < δ
asserts that x is within a distance δ of a. The two inequalities Figure 1
may be combined as the single statement 0 < |x – a| < δ,
which describes the open interval (a–δ, a + δ) from which a
is deleted.
Here we wish to say that f(x) is arbitrarily close to whenever x
is sufficiently close, but not equal to a. What does “sufficiently
close” mean? “ The answer is this : If an arbitrary ε > 0 is
chosen with which to measure the distance between f(x) and ,
then it must be the case that there is a number δ > 0 such that
whenever x is in the domain of f and within a distance δ of
a, but not equal to a then the distance between f(x) and is
less than ε. Figure 2
This is illustrated on the graph of the function y = f(x) as shown
in the figure. Since from the inequality |x – a| < δ there follows
the inequality |f(x) – l| < ε, this means that for all points x that
are not more distant from the point a than δ, the points M of
the graph of the function y = f(x) lie within a band of width 2ε
bounded by the lines y = –ε and y = + ε.

In fact, difference between y and 2 can be made as small as we number δ, there is a nonzero number x in the open interval

Thus, for every value of x which is greater than 1 and less than

Instead of the particular number .001, we now consider any 1

small positive number ε. Then 2
y – 2 = x – 1 < ε ⇔ x < 1 + ε.
Thus, there exists an interval (1, 1 + ε), such that the value of
y, for any value of x in this interval, differs from 2 numerically,
by a number which is smaller than the positive number ε,
selected arbitrarily.
Thus, the limit of y as x approaches 1 from the right is 2 and
we have lim y = 2.
x→1+
We now consider the behaviour of the values of y for values of
x less than 1. When x is less than 1, y is less than 2.
If, x, while remaining less than 1, takes up values whose
difference from 1 constantly diminishes, then y, while
remaining less than 2, takes up values whose difference from
2 constantly diminishes also. Notice in the definition that the hypothesis 0 < | x – a | simply
Let now, ε be any arbitrarily assigned positive number, however means x ≠ a. This condition releases the point of approach

Oscillating Functions
When f(n) does not tend to a limit, nor to ∞ , nor to –∞, as n tends
to ∞, we say that f(n) oscillates as n tends to ∞.
The simplest example of an oscillatory function is given by f(n)
= (–1)n , which is equal to 1 when n is even and to –1 when n
is odd. In this case the values recur cyclically.

“M. Poitou has written frankly, but brightly; and his pages
are not less distinguished by French vivacity than by French
lucidity. They are eminently readable; and if they pretend to
no great depth of reflection, they sketch the present condition
of Spain—they delineate its landscapes, they cull the choicest
episodes of its history, and touch upon the more conspicuous
features of the Spanish character—with unfailing good sense,
quick discrimination, and considerable felicity.”
