Karnataka 1st PUC Maths Question Bank Chapter 13 Limits and Derivatives

Question 1.
Explain the meaning of x → a .
Answer:
Let x be a variable and ‘a’ be a constant. Since ‘x’ is a variable we can change its value at pleasure. It can be changed so that its value comes nearer and nearer to a. Then we say that x approaches ‘a’ and it is denoted by x → a .

Question 2.
Investigate the behaviour of \(f(x)=\frac{x^{2}-4}{x-2}\) at the point the point x = 2 and near the point x = 2.
Answer:

1st PUC Maths Question Bank Chapter 13 Limits and Derivatives 2
It is clear from the table that as gets nearer and nearer to 2 from either side, f(x) gets closer and closer 4 from either side.
\(\lim _{x \rightarrow 2^{-}} f(x)=\lim _{x \rightarrow 2^{+}} f(x)=4\)

Question 3.
Define limit of a function.
Answer:
Let f(x) be a function defined on an interval that contains x = a, except possible at x = a. Then we say that, \(\lim _{x \rightarrow a} f(x)=L\)
If for every number ∈ > 0 there is some number δ > 0 such that

Remark: We say  \(\lim _{x \rightarrow a^{-}} f(x)\)is expected value of f at
x = a given the values of f near x to the left to a.The values is called left hand limit.

Algebra of derivative of functions

Theorem

Let f and g be two functions such that their derivatives are defined in a common domain. Then

(i) Derivative of sum of two functions is sum of the derivatives of the functions.
\(\cfrac{d}{d x}[f(x)+g(x)]=\cfrac{d}{d x} f(x)+\cfrac{d}{d x} g(x)\)

(ii) Derivative of difference of two functions is difference of the derivatives of the functions
\(\cfrac{d}{d x}[f(x)-g(x)]=\cfrac{d}{d x} f(x)-\cfrac{d}{d x} g(x)\)

(iii) Derivative of product of two functions is given by the following product rule:
\(\begin{aligned}\cfrac{d}{d x}[f(x) \cdot g(x)] & \\&=f(x)\left[\cfrac{d}{d x}g(x)\right]+g(x)\left[\cfrac{d}{d x} f(x)\right]\end{aligned}\)

(iv) Derivative of the quotient of two functions is given by the following quotient rule:
\(\cfrac{d}{d x} \cfrac{f(x)}{g(x)}=\cfrac{g(x) \cfrac{d}{d x} f(x)-f(x) \cfrac{d}{d x} g(x)}{[g(x)]^{2}}\)
