PART 1: LIMITS DIFFERENTIAL CALCULUS DEFINITION Differential calculus is a field in mathematics, which study of how functions change when their inputs change. This rate of change of a function with respect to a chosen input value (the independent variable) is called derivative. LIMIT OF A FUNCTION DEFINITION The LIMIT OF A FUNCTION is the value a function (dependent variable) approaches as the independent variable approaches a value. lim π(π₯) = π(π) π₯→π LIMIT OF A FUNCTION THEOREMS ON LIMITS βLIMIT OF A CONSTANT: lim π = π π₯→π βLIMIT OF A CONSTANT AND A FUNCTION: lim π β π π₯ π₯→π = π β lim [π(π₯)] π₯→π LIMIT OF A FUNCTION THEOREMS ON LIMITS βSUM AND DIFFERENCE OF FUNCTIONS: lim π(π₯) ± π π₯ π₯→π = lim [π(π₯)] ± lim [π(π₯)] π₯→π π₯→π βPRODUCT OF FUNCTIONS: lim π(π₯) β π π₯ π₯→π = lim [π(π₯)] β lim [π(π₯)] π₯→π π₯→π LIMIT OF A FUNCTION THEOREMS ON LIMITS βQUOTIENT OF TWO FUNCTIONS: π π₯ lim π₯→π π π₯ lim π π₯ = π₯→π lim π π₯ π₯→π βLIMIT OF POWER OF A FUNCTION: lim π π₯ π = [lim π π₯ ]π π₯→π π₯→π THEOREMS ON LIMITS INDETERMINATE FORMS If the expression obtained after substituting the limit to a given function does not give enough information to determine the original limit, it is known as an indeterminate form. β 00 β ∞0 β 1∞ 0 β 0 β∞−∞ β0×∞ ∞ β ∞ INDETERMINATE FORMS L’HOSPITALS RULE Generally, the L’Hospitals Rule works only for the limit of a quotient that takes the indeterminate form 0/0 or ∞/∞. π π₯ πΌπ: lim π₯→π π π₯ π π₯ π‘βππ: lim π₯→π π π₯ lim π π₯ 0 ∞ = = ππ lim π π₯ 0 ∞ π₯→π π₯→π π′ π₯ = lim π₯→π π′ π₯ lim π π π₯ π′′ π₯ π₯→π = lim …= π₯→π π′′ π₯ lim ππ π₯ π₯→π LIMITS OF SPECIAL FUNCTIONS L’HOSPITALS RULE sin π₯ β lim =1 π₯→0 π₯ sin π₯ β lim =0 π₯→∞ π₯ β lim cos π₯ = 0 π₯→∞ π₯ β lim tan π₯ = 1 π₯→0 π₯ β 1 − cos π₯ lim =0 π₯→0 π₯ β 1 1+π₯ π₯ β 1 lim 1 + π₯→∞ π₯ π₯ =π lim π₯→0 β π₯ π −1 lim π₯→0 π₯ =π π₯ =1 LIMITS OF SPECIAL FUNCTIONS SPECIAL FUNCTIONS π −1 = ln π β lim π₯→0 π₯ π₯ π − ππ β lim = πππ−1 π₯→0 π₯ − π β lim π₯ = ∞ π₯ β lim = ∞, π ≠ 0 π₯→∞ π π = ∞, π ≠ 0 β lim π₯→0 π₯ π β lim = 0, π ≠ 0 π₯→∞ π₯ π₯ π₯→∞ SAMPLE PROBLEMS IN DIFFERENTIAL CALCULUS QUESTION NO. 1 Evaluate the limit of the function: π₯2 − 1 lim π₯→1 π₯ − 1 A. 0 B. 1 C. 2 D. ∞ SAMPLE PROBLEMS IN DIFFERENTIAL CALCULUS QUESTION NO. 2 Evaluate the limit of the function: 3 π₯ − 2π₯ + 5 lim π₯→∞ 2π₯ 3 − 7 A. 0 B. 0.5 C. 2 D.
