Formula Sheet — Limits And Derivatives

Important formulas and equations from Limits And Derivatives for NDA Mathematics.

Formulas — Limits And Derivatives

Limits - Basic Definition and Evaluation

lim_{x→a} f(x) = l
lim_{x→a⁻} f(x) = lim_{x→a⁺} f(x) = l
lim_{x→∞} (a₀xᵐ + ...)/(b₀xⁿ + ...) = a₀/b₀ if m=n

Standard Limits - Trigonometric

lim_{x→0} (sin x)/x = 1
lim_{x→0} (tan x)/x = 1
lim_{x→0} (1-cos x)/x = 0
lim_{x→0} (1-cos x)/x² = 1/2

Exponential and Logarithmic Limits

lim_{x→0} (e^x - 1)/x = 1
lim_{x→0} (a^x - 1)/x = ln a
lim_{x→0} ln(1+x)/x = 1
lim_{x→0} (1+x)^(1/x) = e

Derivatives - First Principles

f'(x) = lim_{h→0} [f(x+h) - f(x)]/h
f'(a) = lim_{x→a} [f(x) - f(a)]/(x - a)
f'(x) = lim_{h→0} [f(x+h) - f(x-h)]/(2h)
