DIFFERENTIATION:
Differentiation is the essence of Calculus. A derivative is defined as the instantaneous rate of change in function based on one of its variables. It is similar to finding the slope of tangent to the function at a point.
Suppose you need to find the slope of the tangent line to a graph at point P. The slope can be approximated by drawing a line through the point P and finding the slope by a line that is known as secant line.
A function f in x is said to be differentiable at the point x = a if the derivative f'(a) exists at every point in its domain.
For a function to be differentiable at any point x=a in its domain, it must be continuous at that particular point but vice-versa is necessarily not always true. The domain of f’(x) is defined by the existence of its limits.
If y = f(x) is a function in x, then the derivative of f(x) is given as dy/dx . This is known as the derivative of y with respect to x.
Derivative of a function f(x) signifies the rate of change of the function f(x) with respect to x at a point a lying in its domain.
If the derivative of the function, f’, is known which is differentiable in its domain then we can find the function f. In integral calculus, we call f as the anti-derivative or primitive of the function f’. The method of calculating the anti-derivative is known as anti-differentiation or integration.
INTEGRATION:
The integration of a function f(x) is given by F(x) and it is represented by:
where
R.H.S. of the equation indicates integral of f(x) with respect to x
F(x) is called anti-derivative or primitive.
f(x) is called the integrand.
dx is called the integrating agent.
C is the constant of integration or arbitrary constant.
x is the variable of integration.
