The Chain Rule Theorem 3.5.2 Chain Rule • Derivative of Composition of Functions (Chain Rule) • Generalized Derivative formula • More Generalized Derivative formula • An Alternative approach to using Chain Rule Derivative of Composition of Functions (Chain Rule) • Suppose we have two functions f and g and we know their derivatives. Can we use this information to find the derivative of the composition • It turns out that we can by a rule call the CHAIN RULE for differentiation • Look at Let us introduce the equation u = g(x). Then the first one becomes We want to use the known things: To find the derivative Here is the way to do it. Theorem 3.5.2 Chain Rule If g is differentiable at the point x and f is differentiable at the point g(x), then the composition f (g (x)) is differentiable at the point x. Moreover, if

Generalized Derivative formula So should we prove this? Well, Let's leave this as an exercise for the students. Its not too difficult, but may be a bit lengthy. It is given in Section III of Appendix C of the textbook. Example Find By the Chain Rule This formula for finding the derivative of a composition of function is easy to remember if you think of canceling the du on the top and the bottom resulting in dy / dx!! This is only a technique to remember, this does not actually happen. Generalized Derivative formula The formula we saw for finding the derivative of composition of functions is a little cumbersome. Here is a simpler one.

Powerful formula: Simple and effective! The chain rule is Now y = f(u) gives upon differentiation w..r.t u Using this in the equation of the chain rule gives Powerful formula: Simple and effective! Example Note that this formula involves derivative of functions which have a different independent variable than the variable we are “differentiating with respect to!” Note that we had in our last example

This matches up with what we have seen before This matches up with what we have seen before. So this formula is a generalization of our differentiation ideas from previous lectures Here is a table for your reference Example Example

More examples Example Example How do we know what to let u equal? Well, you make your substitution so that the result comes out to be a function that you already know how to differentiate. Like in the last one, we made it so that we got tan(u) which is easy to differentiate. More examples Example An alternative approach to using Chain Rule Remember that we started with f(g(x)) and then labeled g(x) as u by u = g(x). If we don’t do this then we get With this notation, we can say informally that the chain rule says “Derivative of the OUTER function f, then Derivative of the INNER function g, and multiply the two together” Example
