In the previous unit we introduced the definition of the derivative. In thisunit we will use and compute the derivative more efficiently. As a lead in, though,let us review how we arrived at the derivative concept.
Interpretations of Secants vs Derivatives
From Section 2.4The slope of a secant line gives
• the average rate of change of f(x) over some interval ∆x.
• the average velocity over an interval, if f(t) represents position.
• the average acceleration over an interval, if f(t) represents velocity.
Give the units of the slope of a secant line.

Unit 3 – Differentiability, Computing Derivatives 3
The derivative gives
• the limit of the average slope as the interval ∆x approaches zero.
• a formula for slopes for the tangent lines to f(x).
• the instantaneous rate of change of f(x).
• the velocity, if f(t) represents position.
• the acceleration, if f(t) represents velocity.
Give the units of the derivative.

Differentiability
From Section 2.6Recall the definition of the derivative.
f ′(x) =df
dx= lim
∆x→0
∆f
∆x= lim
h→0
f(x + h)− f(x)
h
A function f is differentiable at a given point a if it has a derivative at a, orthe limit above exists. There is also a graphical interpretation differentiability: ifthe graph has a unique and finite slope at a point. Since the slope inquestion is automatically the slope of the tangent line, we could also say that
f is differentiable at a if its graph has a (non-vertical)tangent at (a, f(a)).
For functions of the form y = f(x), we do not consider points with vertical tangentlines to have a real-valued derivative, because a vertical line does not have a finiteslope.

Unit 3 – Differentiability, Computing Derivatives 5
Here are the ways in which a function can fail to be differentiable at a point a:
1. The function is not continuous at a.
2. The function has a corner (or a cusp) at a.
3. The function has a vertical tangent at (a, f(a)).
Sketch an example graph of each possible case.

We have seen at a point that a function can have, or fail to have, the followingdescriptors:
• continuous;
• limit exists;
• is differentiable.
Put these properties in decreasing order of stringency, and sketch relevantillustrations.

Unit 3 – Differentiability, Computing Derivatives 9
Differentiability is Common
You will notice that, despite our concern about some functions not being differen-tiable, most of our standard functions (polynomials, rationals, exponentials, loga-rithms, roots) are differentiable at most points. Therefore we should investigatewhat all these possible derivative/slope values could tell us.
Interpreting the Derivative
From Section 2.4
• Where f ′(x) > 0, or the derivative is positive, f(x) is increasing.
• Where f ′(x) < 0, or the derivative is negative, f(x) is decreasing.
• Where f ′(x) = 0, or the tangent line to the graph is horizontal, f(x)has a critical point.

Note: The standard formulas for derivatives are covered in the Grade 12 Ontariocurriculum. While they will be reviewed here, students who are not familiar
with them should begin both textbook reading and the assignment
problems for this unit as soon as possible.
Computing Derivatives
From Sections 3.1-3.6Beyond the graphical interpretation of derivatives, there are all the algebraic rules.All of these rules are based on the definition of the derivative,
f ′(x) =df
dx= lim
∆x→0
∆f
∆x= lim
h→0
f(x + h)− f(x)
h
However, by finding common patterns in the derivatives of certain families of func-tions, we can compute derivatives much more quickly than by using the definition.

Trigonometric Functions
From Section 1.5In our earlier discussion of functions, we skipped over the trigonometric functions.We return to them now to discuss both their properties and their derivative rules.
The trigonometric functions are usually defined for students first using triangles(recall the mnemonic device, “SOHCAHTOA”).

Extending Trigonometric Domains
One difficulty with limiting ourselves to the triangle ratio definition of the trigfunctions is that the possible angles are limited to the range θ ∈ [0, π2 ] radians orθ ∈ [0, 90] degrees.To remove this limitation, mathematicians extended the definition of the trigono-metric functions to a wider domain via the unit circle.

Despite the geometric source of the trigonometric functions, they are used morecommonly in biology and many other sciences as because their periodicity andoscillatory shapes. For many cyclic behaviours in nature, trigonometric func-tions are a natural first choice for modeling.

Derivatives of Trigonometric Functions
From Section 3.5Having covered the graphs and properties of trigonometric functions, we can nowreview the derivative formulae for those same functions.The derivation of the formulas for the derivatives of sin and cos are an interestingstudy in both limits and trigonometric identities. For those who are interested,many such derivations can be found on the web1. However, it is in some ways moreuseful to derive the formula in a graphical manner.
