Applications of derivatives
From LocusWiki
Welcome to the chapter on Application of Derivatives
Brief Introduction about the Chapter
This chapter deals with the applications of the concept of differentiation and derivatives. Using this concept, we are able to solve a wide variety of problems, many of them of significant practical use. For example, as we’ll learn in this chapter, using the concept of derivatives we can write down the equations of tangents and normals to arbitrary curves at arbitrary points, check whether a function is increasing or decreasing in arbitrary intervals, find the maximum and minimum values of a given function, and so on.
