In this calculus worksheet, students find the derivative of a function. They use the product rule to to differentiate each problem. There are 21 problems with an answer key.
Sal defines the product rule and then shows two examples of how it is used. He then shows an example of finding the derivative by using both the chain rule and product rule together.
In this calculus worksheet, students solve 10 different problems that include determining the first derivative in each. First, they apply properties of logarithmic functions to expand the right side of each equation. Then, students differentiate both sides with respect to x,using the chain rule on the left side and the product rule on the right. In addition, they multiply both sides by y and substitute.
Students investigate derivatives using the product rule. In this derivatives using the product rule activity, students use the Ti-89 to find the derivatives of functions such as x^2 and sin(x) using the product rule. Students visualize the process of finding the derivatives using the product rule on the Ti-89.
Students review vocabulary words for calculus. In this calculus instructional activity, a list of vocabulary words is provided for students to review. Students may use this list as a review of important terms to know for calculus.
Twelfth graders investigate differentiation. In this calculus lesson students explore estimated and exact results for derivatives, tangent lines, implicit differentiation, and symbolic differentiation. The lesson provides examples with solutions and practice problems.
In this calculus worksheet, students perform integration by parts. They solve differential equations as they use integration by part to solve unlike terms. There are 23 problems with an answer key.
In this exam review worksheet, students find the limits of given problems. They identify the slope of a line tangent to a function. Students find the derivative of a function. They determine the area between two curves. This four-page worksheet contains 21 multi-step problems.
Twelfth graders explore the concept of limits. For this calculus lesson, 12th graders investigate the limit rules for both finite and infinite limits through the use of the TI-89 calculator. The worksheet includes examples for each rule and a section for students to try other examples.
In this calculus worksheet, students solve functions using the derivative formulas. There are 26 formulas for them to review and go over.
