Review of differentiation and integration rules from Calculus I and II

for Ordinary Differential Equations, 3301

General Notation:
a, b, m, n, C are non-specific constants, independent of variables
e, are special constants e = 2.71828 , = 3.14159
f, g, u, v, F are functions
f n (x) usually means [f (x)]n , but f 1 (x) usually means inverse function of f
a(x + y) means a times x + y, but f (x + y) means f evaluated at x + y
f g means function f times function g, but f (g) means output of g is input of f
t, x, y are variables, typically t is used for time and x for position, y is position or output
0 00
, are Newton notations for first and second derivatives.
d d2 d d2
Leibnitz notations for first and second derivatives are and or and
dx dx2 dt dt2
Differential of x is shown by dx or x or h
f (x + x) f (x)
f 0 (x) = lim , derivative of f shows the slope of the tangent line, rise
x0 x
over run, for the function y = f (x) at x

General differentiation rules:

dt dx
1a- Derivative of a variable with respect to itself is 1. = 1 or = 1.
dt dx
1b- Derivative of a constant is zero.
2- Linearity rule (af + bg)0 = af 0 + bg 0
3- Product rule (f g)0 = f 0 g + f g 0
0
f f 0 g f g0
4- Quotient rule =
g g2
5- Power rule (f n )0 = nf n1 f 0
6- Chain rule (f (g(u)))0 = f 0 (g(u))g 0 (u)u0
7- Logarithmic rule (f )0 = [eln f ]0
8- PPQ rule (f n g m )0 = f n1 g m1 (nf 0 g + mf g 0 ), combines power, product and quotient
9- PC rule (f n (g))0 = nf n1 (g)f 0 (g)g 0 , combines power and chain rules
10- Golden rule: Last algebra action specifies the first differentiation rule to be used

Function-specific differentiation rules:

(un )0 = nun1 u0 (uv )0 = uv v 0 ln u + vuv1 u0
(eu )0 = eu u0 (au )0 = au u0 ln a
u0 u0
(ln(u))0 = (loga (u))0 =
u u log a
(sin(u))0 = cos(u)u0 (cos(u))0 = sin(u)u0
(tan(u))0 = sec2 (u)u0 (cot(u))0 = csc2 (u)u0
(sec(u))0 = sec(u) tan(u)u0 (csc(u))0 = csc(u) cot(u)u0
 u0 u0
(sin1 (u))0 = (cos1 (u))0 =
1 u2 1 u2
u0 u0
(tan1 (u))0 = (cot1 (u))0 =
1 + u2 1 + u2
u0 u0
(sec1 (u))0 = (csc1 (u))0 =
u u2 1 u u2 1

General integration definitions and methods:

R
1- Indefinite integral f (x)dx = F (x) + C means F 0 (x) = f (x), F is antiderivative of f
Rb
2- Definite integral a f (x)dx = F (b) F (a) is area under y = f (x) from x = a to x = b
R R R
3- Linearity (af + bg)dx = a f dx + b gdx
R R
4a- Integration by parts f g 0 dx = f g f 0 gdx
R R
4b- Integration by parts udv = uv vdu
R R
5a- Indefinite integration by substitution f (g(x))g 0 (x)dx = f (u)du when u = g(x)
Rb R g(b)
5b- Definite integration by substitution a f (g(x))g 0 (x)dx = g(a) f (u)du when u = g(x)
6- Integration by partial fraction decomposition
7- Integration by trigonometric substitution, reduction, circulation, etc
8- Study Chapter 7 of calculus text (Stewarts) for more detail
