  1. Calculus Chapter 3 Derivatives

  2. 3.1 Informal definition of derivative

  3. 3.1 Informal definition of derivative • A derivative is a formula for the rate at which a function changes.

  4. Formal Definitionof the Derivative of a function

  5. You’ll need to “snow” this

  6. Formal Definitionof the Derivative of a function • f’(x)= lim f(x+h) – f(x) • h->0 h

  7. Notation for derivative • y’ • dy/dx • df/dx • d/dx (f) • f’(x) • D (f)

  8. Rate of change and slope Slope of a secant line See diagram

  9. The slope of the secant line gives the change between 2 distinct points on a curve. i.e. average rate of change

  10. Rate of change and slope-slope of the tangent line to a curvesee diagram

  11. The slope of the tangent line gives the rate of change at that one point i.e. the instantaneous change.

  12. Slope= y-y x-x Slope of secant line m= f ’(x) Slope of tangent line compare

  13. Time for examples • Finding the derivative using the formal definition • This is music to my ears!

  14. A function has a derivative at a point

  15. A function has a derivative at a point iff the function’s right-hand and left-hand derivatives exist and are equal.

  16. Theorem If f (x) has a derivative at x=c,

  17. Theorem If f (x) has a derivative at x=c, then f(x) is continuous at x=c.

  18. Finding points where horizontal tangents to a curve occur

  28. 3.4 Definition Average velocity of a “body” moving along a line

  29. Defintion Instantaneous Velocity is the derivative of the position function

  30. Def. speed

  31. Definition Speed The absolute value of velocity

  32. Definition Acceleration

  33. acceleration • Don’t drop the ball on this one.

  34. Definition Acceleration The derivative of velocity,

  35. Definition Acceleration The derivative of velocity, Also ,the second derivative of position

  36. 3.5 Derivatives of trig functions • Y= sin x

  37. 3.5 Derivatives of trig functions • Y= sin x • Y= cos x

  38. 3.5 Derivatives of trig functions • Y= sin x • Y= cos x • Y= tan x
