Differentiation
The idea of limit.
Consider y = x + 2 . If x => 0 (as x takes on smaller and smaller values until it approaches zero),
1–x
y = x + 2 approaches the value of 2. In the limit when x = 0, y = 2.

Maxima and Minima
1. When an object is thrown from a point O, it will reach a maximum height AB and then falls back to the ground.
2. During the ascend between O and A, the gradient is positive, but steadily decreasing to zero at A. After passing
the point A, the particle is descending, and the gradient is negative. The shape of the curve is a parabola and the
2
equation of the curve is y = x
3. Notice that before the maximum point A, the gradient is positive, and after the point A, the gradient is negative.
Therefore, by comparing the gradients immediately before and after a turning point, we can determine whether the
turning point is a maximum turning point or a minimum turning point.
4. For a maximum turning point, the gradient changes from positive to negative and for a minimum turning point,
the gradient changes from negative to positive.

Example D.21: The volume of a cylinder is 500 cm . Show that the total surface area of the cylinder
2
2
is equal to 2 r + 1000/r cm , where r is the radius of the base. Hence find the value of r which
makes the surface area a minimum.
Solution:

Volume of cylinder = r h = 500
Hence h = 500

Total surface area of cylinder, S = 2 rh + 2 r

dS = 4 r – 1000/r = 0 ( for minimum value).
dr
r = 1000/4 , therefore r = √(250/ ) = 4.3 cm
