Episode 11: Differentiation – Chain Rule of differentiation

In this episode, I talk about the Chain Rule of Differentiation, a very powerful rule which can be applied to find the derivative of many functions. Visit bitesizemathpi.com Email at bitesizemathpi@gmail.com Facebook: www.facebook.com/bitesizemathpi/

Episode 10: Differentiation - rules of differentiation

This episode discusses the derivative of function of the form y = mx, Power rule, the Sum Rule and Difference Rule of Differentiation. I also discuss two examples which illustrates how these rules are applied.

Episode 9: Differentiation - finding derivatives

In this episode, I discuss differentiation. From the gradient formula, I discuss what is finding the derivative of a function and how this is related to finding the limits of a function. The derivatives of some common functions are also touched on. Visit bitesizemathpi.com Email at bitesizemathpi@gmail.com Facebook: www.facebook.com/bitesizemathpi/

Episode 8: Limits - A formal definition

The formal definition of limits is discussed in this episode. I talk about how we need to make use of the absolute value between two values to help us define the idea of limits precisely using mathematical notation.

Episode 7: Limits (A quick introduction)

The idea of limits is so important in the study of calculus. To understand how we find the slope of the tangent of a function at a point, listen to this bite-sized episode. I discuss the idea as a variable approaches a certain value when finding the limits of a function. The idea of limits at infinity is also mentioned.
