THEME 3.1 - 3.2: DIFFERENTIABILITY AT A POINT DUE DATE: MARCH 24, 2026 This worksheet. will be based upon the Lecture videos 1Theme 3-Part 1 to 4_Theme 3_Part 4. There is a total of 6 questions. Total marks: 64. 1, DERIVATIVE AS SLOPE OF TANGENT LINE Watch the video 1 Theme 3 Part 1 before attempting. Question 1.[2, 5 ; 2; 2,5 marks] Find ihe equation of the tangent and nor- mal line to the cur at (8,2) as follows (a) Show that the slope of tangent line is 4; at x = 8 as follows: (i) Prove that the gradient of the secant line h away from 2 — 8 is given by YBTh-2 A (ii) Prove that the limit as A — 0 of the gradient of the secant. line A away [rom x= lis: 1 12° (b) Using (a) find the equation of the normal and tangent line. (c) Use the definition of the derivative to calculate the derivative of function y — y/a as follows: (i) Prove that the gradient of the nt linc h away from a fixed x is given by Veth— h (ii) Prove that the limit as h — 0 of the gradient of the secant line h away from x is: L 3L Question 2.[3, 3 marks] Show (hat if f(#) = lanaa: then the derivative f’(i) = asec? ax ax follows: (i) Prove that the gradient of the secant line h away from a fixed a is given by tana(e+h)—tan(aw) — tan(ah)(1 + tan? (ax) h h(L tan(aa)tan(ah))” (ii) Prove that the limit as h > 0) of the gradiont of the secant line h away from x is: ase#(az). 1 TUEMIS 3.1 - 3.2: DIFFERENTIABILITY AY A POINT DUR DATE: MARCH 24, 2026 2. DIFFERENTIATION RULES Watch the video 2-Theme 3Part 2 before attempting. Question 3. [2, 4; 2, 4;2 , 2 marks] Use the appropriate differentiation rule to cvaluate the first, f’ and second f” derivative of . 1 (@) fl) = 9 (ii) g(a) = Va? +0 si (iii) h(a) = Question 4. [1, 1, 4; 1, 1, 5 marks] Use mathematical induction to prove for any positive integer n: (a) Prove that 7" — 1 is divisible by 6 whore n = 1,2, as follows .. is a positive integer (i) Prove thal. the statement is true for the case n= 1. (ii) State the assumption that the statement is truc for the n = k-th odd num- ber. (ii) Only assuming that is true, show that the statement is true for the n — k+1- th odd number. (b) Consider the function f(z) = «2 where n is a positive integer. Use mathe- matical induction to prove that (1) for n = 1,2,3......... as follows: (i) Prove that (1) is true or is valid for the n = L-th case. (ii) State the assumption that the statement (1) is true for the A’th case that isn=h. (iii) Onl k+1-the assuming that (ii) is truc, show that the statement (1) is true for the thal is, n = (k +1). 3.
