Introduction to calculus formula sheet

Calculus is a branch in mathematics which deals with the study of limits, functions, derivatives, integrals, and infinite series. It has two main branches
  • Differential calculus
  • Integral calculus
It is a formula sheet which contains differentiation and integration formulas which are needed to solve the calculus problems. We should know all the calculus formulas before get into the problems. Calculus formula sheet helps you to learn all those formulas. It is very much helpful for the students at the time of examination for reviewing calculus formulas. 
Integration is a limiting process which is used to find the area of a region under a curve.  We can also say that integration is an anti derivative of differentiation. Integration of a function is shown as,
                              f(x) dx = F(x) + C
                              = Sign of integration
                             The variable x in dx is called variable of integration or integrator.
                             C= constant       

Differential Calculus Formula Sheet:

Derivatives of polynomial functions:
 (c) = 0         C - Constant
 (x) = 1
 (cx) = c
 (xn) = nxn-1
 (cxn) = ncxn-1
Derivatives of trigonometric functions:
 (sin x) = cos x
 (cos x) =  - sin x
 (tan x) = secx
 (cot x) = - cosec2x
 (sec x) = sec x tan x
 (cosec x) = - cosec x cot x
 eax = aex                   
 c f(x)=c d/dx f(x)
 sinax = acosax
 cosax = −asinax

Basic Rules Necessary to Solve Differential Calculus Problems


Sum Rule for Solve Differential Calculus Problems:         

             [f(x)±g(x)]′=f′(x)±g′(x)
Product Rule for Solve Differential Calculus Problems:  

             [f(x)·g(x)]′=f′(x)·g(x)+f(x)·g′(x).
Quotient Rule for Solve Differential Calculus Problems:

             [f(x)g(x)]′ = f′(x)·g(x)−f(x)·g′(x) / g2(x)
Chain Rule for Solve Differential Calculus Problems:   

             [f•g(x)]′=f′(g(x))·g′(x)
Inverse Rule for Solve Differential Calculus Problems: 

      [f−1]′(t)=1 / f′(f−1(t))

ie,


 (u + v) =  +
 (u - v) =  - 
 (uv) = u  + v 
 (u/v) = (v  - u  )/v2


 (ev) = ev 
 (av) = av(ln a) 
 (ln u) =  
 (logx u) =  


Derivatives of inverse trigonometric functions:
 (sin-1 x) = 
 (cos-1 x) = - 
 (tan-1 x) = 
 (sec-1 x) = 
 (cosec-1 x) = - 
 (cot-1 x) = - 
Derivatives of hyperbolic functions:
 (sinh x) = cos hx
 (cosh x) = sin hx
 (tanh x) = sec h2x
 (sech x) = - tanh x sech x
 (cosech x) = - coth x cosech x
 (coth x) = - cosech2x

Learn Differentiation Revision Problems:

Learn differentiation revision problem 1:
       Through the revision of differentiation formula, Find the given function  y = 5cot x - x3 .
   Solution:
                               Let   y = 5cot x - x3 .
                                   =  [5cot x - x3]
                                         =  5(cot x) - 3x2                                    (we know .    (cot x) = - cosec2x)
                                         = 5(-cosec2x) - 3x2 
                                         = - 5cosec2x -3x2 
   Answer: Differentiation of 5cot x - x3 is  - 5cosec2x - 3x2  
Learn differentiation revision problem 2:
        Through the revision of differentiation formula, Find the exponential function 9e-4x
    Solution:
                        (9e-4x)  = 9 e-4x                        
                               Here, a = -4
              So,                         = 9 e-4x  
                                             = 9(-4) e-4x 
                                             = -36 e-4x  
    Answer: Differentiation of 9e-4x is  -36 e-4x 
Learn differentiation revision problem 3:
      Through the revision of differentiation formula, Find the logarithmic function f(x) = ln(4x) with respect to x.
   Solution:
                                      Let  u = 4x                                            So, f(x) = ln u
                                         = 4
                                         f(x) = ln u
                                (f(x))  =  ( ln u)                                                   we know,  (ln u) =
