[Maths Class Notes] on Product Rule Pdf for Exam

Differentiation in maths, is the way of finding the derivative, or rate of change of some of the functions. The basic technique of the differentiation can be shown by doing algebraic manipulations. It has many of the fundamental theorems and formulae to do the differentiation of the functions. In this particular topic, we are going to discuss the basic theorems and some of the important differentiation formulas with suitable examples. Let us learn an interesting topic!

This method is used for finding the differentiation or derivative of the function provided in the form of two different functions or products. This means to say that the students can apply the rule of product or Leibniz rule for looking for the derivative function. The product rule is followed by the derivatives and limit concept in differentiation directly. In the below explanation provided by , you will be able to comprehend the proofs, formulas and examples in a descriptive manner. 

always tries to offer the best subject matter to its students. In the introduction of the product rule, we have explained the concept thoroughly so that it directly goes to the head of the students. 

In the tech-savvy world, online coaching has become the best choice as they have a chance to select a curriculum according to their schedule. also provides the flexibility to select the teachers as per their rating and you can also interact with the teachers. It is not so that we keep on offering lectures to the students but random or planned online tests are also there. This helps them test their brains and they can also explore their lacking area. 

Once students are aware of their lacking areas, we help them overcome those challenges and in this process, our aim remains to keep up their confidence. By the time the examination is coming nearer, the tutors start guiding regarding the previous year sample question and ask students not to panic. This is not so that only focuses on the sharp students, we provide equal guidance to all of them. However, we sort the students according to their individual capabilities and give some extra time to those who are lagging behind in some or another way.  This is done to help them pace with the other students. 

What is Derivative?

The derivative of a particular function can be defined as the rates of change of a function at that particular point.

What are the Differentiation Rules?

There are some basic product rule differentiation that you need to know!

is going to show it with examples by applying it in varied situations. This will act according to the general differentiation rule, and the concept where constant derivative remains equal to zero. A constant derivative is multiplied with a function that is equal to a constant multiplication by function derivative. The sum of derivatives remains equal to the sum of derivatives. Now, it is time for you to experiment with these rules with the help of tutors. Believe it you are going to enjoy this session as it will provide you with an insight into how successful this rule is while applying it practically. 

1. The Sum Rule or Difference Rule

If function f(x) is a sum or difference of any two functions, then the derivative of the sum of any given functions is equal to the sum of their derivatives and the derivative of a difference of any given functions is equal to the difference of their derivatives.

Suppose, if we have a given function f(x), 

f(x)= u(x) ± v(x)

Then, the differentiation of function f(x), f'(x) =u'(x) ±v'(x)

2. Product Rule

According to the product rule differentiation, if the function f(x) is the product of any two functions, let’s say u(x) and v(x) here, then the derivative of the function f(x) is,

If function f(x) =u(x) ×v(x) then, the derivative of f(x),

f′(x) =u′(x) × v(x) + u(x) × v′(x)

3. Quotient Rule

The quotient rule says that, if any function f(x) is in the quotient form or in the form of two functions u(x)/v(x), then the derivation of the function given function f(x)

If f(x) = u(x) v(x) then,  

The differentiation of function f(x),

[f{}'(x)=frac{u{}'(x)times v(x)-u(x)times v{}'(x)}{v(x)^{2}}]

4. Chain Rule

In chain rule, suppose a function y = f (x) = g (u) and if u = h(x), then according to product rule differentiation, dy dx = dy du × du dx .This rule plays a major role in the method of substitution which will help us to perform differentiation of various composite functions.

We are Going to Discuss Product Rule in Detail

Product Rule

Product rules help us to differentiate between two or more of the functions in a given function. If u and v are the two given functions of x then the Product Rule Formula is denoted by:

d(uv)/dx=udv/dx+vdu/dx

Whenever the first function is multiplied by the derivative of the second and the second function multiplied by the derivative for the first function, then the product rule is put up.  Here we take u as a constant in the first term and v as a constant for the second term.

The formula of the product rule seem like this for the product of the two functions.If we have a product of the three functions, then the formula can be written as following:

Three Functions

For three functions multiplied together, we get this:

(fgh)’ =  f’gh + fg’h  + fgh’

There is a pattern to this. Compare the two formulas carefully. Do you see how each of them maintains the whole function, but each term for the answer takes away the derivative of one of the functions? 

When is Product Rule Used?

Do you see how the f(x) is the product of the two smaller functions? We can also have a particular situation where the f(x) is the product for three or more of the smaller functions:

When you see functions such as this, then you can use the product rule.

A Few Differentiation Formulas and Examples Have Been Listed Below:

Differentiation Formulas

If f(x) = tan(x)

f’(x) = sec2x

If f(x) = cos (x)

f’(x) = -sin x

If f(x) = sin (x)

f’(x) = cos x

If f(x) = ln(x) 

f’(x) = 1/x 

If f(x) = ex

f’(x) = ex

If f(x) = xn, where n is any fraction or any integer.

f’(x) = nxn-1

If f(x) = k , here k is a constant

f’(x) = 0

Product Rule for the Logarithms to Write an Equivalent Sum of the Logarithms

1) Factor the argument completely, by expressing each of the whole number factors as a product of their primes.

2) To write the equivalent expression by adding the logarithms fo
r each of the factors.

Conclusion

Thus, how is your experience of studying with for the topic of products rule? Yes, it must be wonderful as you have got the detailed information offered by the teachers. After the definition of the product rule, you were having an opportunity of getting abreast of differentiation rules, three functions as well as formulas. The best part you must have felt by having online sessions with is that you are given ample chances to do all these equations practically. Considering the fact that mathematics preparation is not possible in the absence of practical sessions, we strike a balance between both of the sessions to bring maximum benefits to the students via .
