The concepts of local (or relative) maxima, local (or relative) minima, global (or absolute) maxima, and global (or absolute) minima of a function. It covers the necessary and sufficient conditions for a point to be a point of maxima, the relationship between critical points and maxima/minima, and the behavior of the function's slope around points of maxima and minima. The document also provides several practice problems to apply these concepts. The content is focused on single-variable functions, which is the scope of the syllabus for iit mains and advanced exams. Overall, this document serves as a comprehensive guide to understanding the key ideas and techniques related to maxima and minima in calculus.

ON
In the previous chapter, we have used
derivatives to determine the intervals on which
function is increasing or decreasing. In this
chapter, we shall use derivatives to determine
points at which a function is maximum or
minimum and to find its maximum or minimum
values.
INTRODUCTI
ON
In this chapter we discussed four terms :
MAXIMA
In mathematics, the largest value attained by the
function within a given neighborhood is called the local
(or relative) maximum value of a function.
A function is said to have
local maxima or relative
maxima at x = c , if is
maximum respectively in
comparison to its
neighbourhood.
Here x = c is point of local
Local Maximum & Local
Minimum
In adjoin is the point of local
maxima. In adjoin is the point of local
minima. In adjoin is the point of local
maxima. In adjoin is the point of local
minima.
In adjoin is the point of local
maxima.

GLOBAL MAXIMA & GLOBAL
MINIMA
In mathematics, the largest
value attained by the function
in its entire domain is called
the absolute (or global )
maximum value of a function.
Similarly, the smallest value
attained by the function in its
entire domain is called the
absolute ( or global) minimum

(^) Condition is mathematically necessary
where x = a must be in domain of f(x).
the interval are called critical points.
Maxima/minima will occur at Critical
Points. यह कोई जरूरी नहीं है हिक सारे critical
points पर Maxima/ Minima define होता हो |
the end points of domain 𝒇 cannot be the
point of local maxima or local minima.
End point of interval be the point of

called Point of Local
Maxima or Relative
Maxima and Points जिजन पर

such points are called
Point of Local Minima or
Relative Minima. A
function can more than
Sometimes if question uses the term 'extremum' or
'extremal' or 'turning value' means point या तो
maximum का point है या minimum का point है |
यह जरूरी नहीं है हिक function की Local Maximum/ Minimum
value ही function की Greatest/Least value हो |
A function can have several maximum and minimum
values point minimum value point maximum value
greater From graph point x = d ZFT minima x = a
maxima greater@ I
Make sure, कभी हो सकता है हिक Greatest/Least
value interval के end point पर मिमले and end point
पर open interval हो then we say Greatest/Least
value of function is not achievable.
First Derivative Test For Local
Maxima & Minima
Derivative test at point x = a, means function x = a
पर Differentiable होना चहिहए |
From the graph above we observe that x = a is a
point of local maxima of function.
