Product rule

(f g)'(x) = f'(x) g(x) + f(x) g'(x)

Wednesday, March 6, 13

Quotient rule

(f/ g)'(x) = f'(x) g(x) - f(x) g'(x) g(x)2

Deriving the Inverse

sin(arccos(x)) arccos'(x) = 1

cos( arccos(x)) = x

arccos'(x) = 1/√1-cos (arccos(x))2

Logs

log(a b) = log(a) + log(b)

log(a ) = b log(a) b

log(a/b) = log(a) - log(b)

log(1) =0 exp(log(x)) =x
