Study Notes
Differentiation and Theorems
- Successive differentiation is a method of finding higher-order derivatives of a function.
Leibniz Theorem
- Leibniz theorem is a formula for finding the nth derivative of a product of two functions.
- It is commonly used to find higher-order derivatives of a function.
Rolle's Theorem
- Rolle's theorem states that if a function f is continuous on the closed interval [a, b] and differentiable on the open interval (a, b), then there exists a point c in (a, b) such that f'(c) = 0.
- The theorem is used to prove the mean value theorem.
Mean Value Theorem
- The mean value theorem states that if a function f is continuous on the closed interval [a, b] and differentiable on the open interval (a, b), then there exists a point c in (a, b) such that f'(c) = (f(b) - f(a)) / (b - a).
- The theorem is used to find the average rate of change of a function over an interval.
Taylor's Theorem and Maclaurin's Theorem
- Taylor's theorem and Maclaurin's theorem are used to find the Taylor series and Maclaurin series of a function, respectively.
- The theorems are used to expand a function as an infinite sum of terms, with each term involving a power of the variable of the function.
Indeterminate Forms and L'Hopital's Rule
- An indeterminate form is a mathematical expression that cannot be evaluated as it is, but can be simplified to a determinate form.
- L'Hopital's rule is a method of evaluating indeterminate forms by taking the limit of the ratio of the derivatives of the numerator and denominator.
- The rule is used to find the limit of a function at a point where it is indeterminate.
