    Study Notes

    Derivatives and Limits

    • The derivative of the function ( f(x) = e^{x^2} ) with respect to ( x ) is ( f'(x) = 2xe^{x^2} ) using the chain rule.
    • A function with the derivative ( f'(x) = 6x^2 - 4 ) can be determined by integrating to find ( f(x) = 2x^3 - 4x + C ), where ( C ) is a constant.

    Second Derivative

    • For the function ( g(x) = \tan(x^2) ), the first derivative is ( g'(x) = 2x \sec^2(x^2) ).
    • The second derivative ( g''(x) ) involves applying the product and chain rules, yielding ( g''(x) = 2\sec^2(x^2) + 8x^2\tan(x^2)\sec^2(x^2) ).

    Limit Evaluation

    • The limit ( \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\sin(5x)}{x} ) evaluates to ( 5 ) using the fact that ( \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\sin(kx)}{x} = k ).

    Critical Points

    • The critical points of the function ( h(x) = x^4 - 8x^2 + 16 ) are found by calculating the derivative ( h'(x) = 4x^3 - 16x ) and setting it to zero.
    • Solving ( 4x(x^2 - 4) = 0 ) gives critical points at ( x = 0, x = -2, x = 2 ).
