Differentiation 1
This class gives you everything you need to master differentiation for the Leaving Cert.
We break down how to differentiate all the key functions — including:
• Polynomials (using the power rule)
• Trigonometric functions (including powers of trig)
• Logarithmic functions (with log rule techniques)
• Exponential functions
• The Product, Quotient, and Chain Rules
We also apply these skills to the most common exam-style problems:
• Differentiating from first principles
• Finding maximum and minimum values
• Using the second derivative to find points of inflection
• Finding equations of tangents
• Graphical understanding of derivatives
You’ll also get a custom-made worksheet packed with the most commonly asked questions — plus full step-by-step solutions so you can practice effectively and secure every mark.
