In this tutorial we do a sample question where you have to find the largest possible value of a quantity given a condition. You will need to know about differentiation, derivatives, chain rule, product rule, quotient rule, first / second derivative test to find the maximum / minimum, in order to do this question. In …
A subscriber found an alternative solution to the previous trigonometry calculus problem using pythagoras and similar triangles. Have a look!
This is one of the hardest questions you will ever do that involves the derivative of trigonometric functions and finding the maximum / minimum. Have fun with it!
This is a problem solving question for differentiation in calculus – how to find the maximum volume of a cylinder inscribed in a cone. You must know how to find maximum and minimum of a function before attempting this question.
Thanks to a subscriber for asking this question. This is a differentiation practice question for calculus that involves finding the second derivative of a function. You will need to understand the chain rule and the product rule before attempting this question. Have fun 🙂
This is a question that involves chain rule, hyperbolas (reciprocal functions) and limits. Try it yourself first then have a look at the answer 🙂
In this quick tutorial, we learn how to use Geogebra to differentiate and integrate functions. A good way to check your answers and to improve your understanding, as you will be able to see a graph and its derivatives or integrals on the same axis. A must-have tool for anyone learning calculus.
In this tutorial we talk about what composite functions are and we do some problems dealing with composite functions.
In this calculus lesson you learn to use the first derivative test to find out whether a stationary point is a maximum, minimum or point of inflection
In this lesson we talk about how to locate stationary points on a curve, by differentiating the equation of the curve and making the derivative equal to zero, then solving for x.
