Chapter Two Review Notes

Chapter Two: Review Notes In only six sections we sure did cover an awful lot of material in this chapter. We learned our basic differentiation rules:  The constant rule  The power rule  The constant-multiple rule  The sum and difference rules  The product rule  The quotient rule  The chain rule

Chapter Two: Review Notes We learned how to differentiate functions even when we cannot implicitly solve them for y. We learned how to solve problems involving related rates of change. These problems often call on the following skills;  Memory of Geometry formulas for volumes and surface areas  Implicit Differentiation  Careful diagrams and explicit formulas to relate quantities  Trig derivatives  The Pythagorean Theorem!

Chapter Two: Review Notes The skills we learned in this chapter will be called on routinely during the year. Remember these differentiation rules and techniques. The inside front and back covers of your book are indispensible references for Geometry formulas and for the list of derivatives that you need to start building in your head. I avoid that “ M ” word, I will just say that you really need to know these standard derivatives and rules.
