This Refresher Booklet has been designed for students who have studied an AS level course in mathematics. It enables the user to practice basic techniques.

After reading this text, and/or viewing
the video tutorial on this topic, you should be able to
understand the process involved in differentiating from first principles and
differentiate some simple functions from first principles.

In this unit we look at how we can use logarithms to simplify certain functions before we differentiate them. (Mathtutor Video Tutorial)

There are two rules known as linearity rules which, when used with a table of derivatives, enable us to differentiate a wider range of functions. These rules are summarised in this leaflet.

Four questions on partial differentiation. The first two involve finding the first and second partial derivative of a polynomial in x and y. The third involves finding a first partial derivative using the chain rule. The fourth involves finding a second partial derivative involving the product rule.

In this unit we construct a Table of Derivatives of commonly occurring functions. This is done using the knowledge gained in previous units on differentiation from first principles. (Mathtutor Video Tutorial)

This leaflet explains how to differentiate the sum of two functions, and constant multiples of functions, using 'linearity rules'. (Engineering Maths First Aid Kit 8.3)

This unit explains how differentiation can be used to calculate the equations of the tangent and normal to a curve.
The tangent is a straight line which just touches the curve at a given point. The normal is a straight line which is
perpendicular to the tangent. (Mathtutor Video Tutorial)

We may regard integration as the reverse of differentiation. So if we have a table of derivatives, we can read it backwards as a table of anti-derivatives. When we do this, we often need to deal with constants
which arise in the process of Differentiation. (Mathtutor Video Tutorial)
