Mr Brewin’s Y12 – Differentiation

Here’s the updated slides for the final section on differentiation. Tomorrow we’ll be looking at the mixed exercise. For then, please have Ex 7H done. Ta!

Mr Brewin’s Y12 – Differentiation

Here’s the slides on differentiation. You’re doing well – we’re nearly done on C1!

Mr Riedel’s Year 12 Core class – Second-order derivatives

Click here to get access to the notes from our session on second-order derivatives. Focus on using the correct notation depending on what derivative you are referring to.

Work through Exercise 7F on page 116 over the weekend.

Next week we’ll be applying what we have learned so far to finding the equations of tangents and normals to [...]

Click here for a reminder of the material we covered in today’s lesson. As I said in class, this background work leads to a much simpler approach once we can spot some patterns. We’ll look at these on Monday.

Have a great weekend.
