CBSE Class 12 Mathematics Chapter 5 Continuity and Differentiability

  • Continuity of function at a point: Geometrically we say that a function Continuity and Differentiability class 12 Notes Mathematics is continuous at Continuity and Differentiability class 12 Notes Mathematics if the graph of the function Continuity and Differentiability class 12 Notes Mathematics is continuous (without any break) at Continuity and Differentiability class 12 Notes Mathematics.
  • A funciton Continuity and Differentiability class 12 Notes Mathematics is said to be continuous at a point  if:

(i)     Continuity and Differentiability class 12 Notes Mathematics exists i.e., Continuity and Differentiability class 12 Notes Mathematics is finite, definite and real.
(ii)     exists.
(iii)   

  • A function  is continuous at   if Continuity and Differentiability class 12 Notes Mathematics where  through positive values.
  • Continuity of a function in a closed interval: A function  is said to be continuous in the closed interval  if it is continuous for every value of  lying between a and b continuous to the right of a and to the left of  i.e., Continuity and Differentiability class 12 Notes Mathematics and 
  • Continuity of a function in a open interval: A function  is said to be continuous in an open interval  if it is continuous at every point in  .
  • Discontinuity (Discontinuous function): A function  is said to be discontinuous in an interval if it is discontinuous even at a single point of the interval.
  • Suppose  is a real function and  is a point in its domain. The derivative of  at  is defined by Continuity and Differentiability class 12 Notes Mathematics provided this limit exists.
  • A real valued function is continuous at a point in its domain if the limit of the function at that point equals the value of the function at that point. A function is continuous if it is continuous on the whole of its domain.
  •  is derivative of first order and is also denoted by  or .
  • Sum, difference, product and quotient of continuous functions are continuous. i.e., if f and g are continuous functions, then Continuity and Differentiability class 12 Notes Mathematics is continuous. (f . g) (x) = f (x) . g(x) is continuous.

Continuity and Differentiability class 12 Notes Mathematics (wherever g (x) ≠ 0) is continuous.

  • Every differentiable function is continuous, but the converse is not true.
  • Chain rule is rule to differentiate composites of functions. If f = v o u, t = u (x) and if both exist then
  • Following are some of the standard derivatives (in appropriate domains):
  •  [Product Rule]
  • , wherever  [Quotient Rule]
  • If  then Continuity and Differentiability class 12 Notes Mathematics [Chain Rule]
  • If , then  [Parametric Form]
  • Continuity and Differentiability class 12 Notes Mathematics
  • Logarithmic differentiation is a powerful technique to differentiate functions of the form    Here both f (x) and u (x) need to be positive for this technique to make sense.
  • If we have to differentiate logarithmic funcitons, other than base , then we use the result  and then differentiate R.H.S.
  • While differentiating inverse trigonometric functions, first represent it in simplest form by using suitable substitution and then differentiate simplified form.
  • If we are given implicit functions then differentiate directly w.r.t. suitable variable involved and get the derivative by readusting the terms.
  •  is derivative of second order and is denoted by  or .
  • Rolle’s Theorem: If f: [a, b] → R is continuous on [a, b] and differentiable on (a, b) such that f (a) = f (b), then there exists some c in (a, b) such that f ′(c) = 0.
  • Lagrange’s Mean Value Theorem: If f: [a, b] → R is continuous on [a, b] and differentiable on (a, b). Then there exists some c in (a, b) such that
