Differentiation from a Table Exercises

www.mathematics.me.uk

This document contains exercises on Differentiation1. The exercises


provide an entry to the topic, providing practice with the notation,
and the exercises should be carried out with access to a formula sheet
that contains a typical table of derivatives, such as the one provided
by Mathcentre2.

Section A
dy
Using a table of derivatives, find dx for the following functions:

1. y = sin x

2. y = x3

3. y = 5

4. y = ln x

5. y = x2

6. y = ex

7. y = 0

9. y = − cos x

10. y = 2 tan x

Section B
dx
Using a table of derivatives, find dt for the following functions:

1. x = t4

2. x = 2et

3. x = 3

4. x = 4t

5. x = tan−1 t

Section C
dy
Using a table of derivatives, find dx for the following functions:

1. y = sin x + x3

2. y = 5 + ln x + x2

3. y = 2ex − cos x + 4x2

4. y = ln(2x) (Note the property of logarithms ln(AB) = ln A+ln B

5. y = 3 ln(4x) − 3 tan x + 2ex
