Resumen del Recurso

Pregunta Respuesta
How do you differentiate? Multiply by the power, then decrease the power by one.
How do you prepare for differentiation? Change any roots into powers. x must not be on the denominator of any fraction. And pairs of brackets should be expanded.
What notation or phrases can we also use to represent differentiation?
How do we find the gradient of the tangent to the curve at a given value of x? Differentiate, then sub x in to find the gradient.
How do we find the equation of the tangent to a curve? Find the gradient (differentiate, then sub in x), then find the y coordinate by substituting x into the original expression, then use y - b = m(x - a). However, do not leave it in this form.
When is a function increasing?
When is a function decreasing?
When is a function stationary?
How do you find the stationary points of a function?
How do you find where a function is increasing or decreasing? Differentiate, then use a nature table (or solve the inequality).
How do you show that a function is ALWAYS increasing/decreasing?
How do you find the solution to an optimisation problem? Investigate stationary points (and end-points if necessary).
What do you get if you differentiate distance? Speed
What do you get if you differentiate speed? Acceleration
