( )( ) Example 1: Find the derivative of f (x) = 4x - 3x2 3 + 2x2
Since there are two polynomials multiplied by each other, apply the third derivative rule, the Product Rule, to the problem.
This is the result of the Product Rule:
[ ] [ ] ( ) ( ) f (x) = 4x - 3x2 d 3 + 2x2 + 3 + 2x2 d 4x - 3x2
dx
dx
Now, take the derivative of each term inside of the brackets. Multiple derivative rules are used, including the Sum and Difference Rule, Constant Rule, Constant Multiple Rule, and Power Rule. When applied, the result is:
f (x) = (4x - 3x2 )(0 + 4x) + (3 + 2x2 )(4 - 6x)
Simplify:
f (x) = (4x - 3x2 )(4x) + (3 + 2x2 )(4 - 6x)
Multiply the polynomials by each other:
( ) ( ) f (x) = 16x2 -12x3 + 12 + 8x2 -18x -12x3
f (x) = 16x2 -12x3 + 12 + 8x2 -18x -12x3
Combine like terms to get a simplified answer:
f (x) = -24x3 + 24x2 -18x + 12

Integral Formulas: Indefinite integrals have +C as an arbitrary constant.
1. kf (u)du = k f (u)du , where k is a constant. 2. [ f (u) ? g(u)]du = f (u)du ? g(u)du
3. du = u + C

( ) Example 2: Evaluate 4x2 - 5x3 + 12 dx
To evaluate this problem, use the first four Integral Formulas. First, use formula 2 to make the large integral into three smaller integrals:
( ) 4x2 - 5x3 + 12 dx = 4x2dx - 5x3dx + 12dx
Second, pull out the constants by using formula 1:
= 4 x2dx - 5 x3dx + 12 dx
Now find each integral using formulas 3 and 4:

Although three integrals have been removed, only one constant C is needed because C represents all unknown constants. Therefore multiple C's can be combined into just one C. To get the final answer, simplify the expression:

Derivatives Rules for Trigonometric Functions:
1. d [sin(u)] = (cos(u))u
dx
2. d [cos(u)] = -(sin(u))u
dx
3. d [tan(u)] = (sec2 (u))u dx
4. d [cot(u)] = -(csc2 (u))u dx
5. d [sec(u)] = (sec(u)tan(u))u
dx
6. d [csc(u)] = -(csc(u)cot(u))u
dx
Example 3: Find the derivative of
f (x) =
sin(x) cos(x)
When finding the derivatives of trigonometric functions, non-trigonometric derivative rules are often incorporated, as well as trigonometric derivative rules. Looking at this function, one can see that the function is a quotient. Therefore, use derivative rule 4 on page 1, the Quotient Rule, to start this problem:

cos2 (x)
Now use trigonometric derivative rules 1 and 2 to get:
f
(x)
=
(cos(x))(cos(x)) - (sin(x))(- cos2 (x)
sin(x))
Once the multiplication has been completed in the numerator of the fraction, the result is:
f

(x))
Remember that sin 2 (x) + cos2 (x) = 1; therefore, substitute 1 for sin2 (x) + cos2 (x) in the
answer. The final result is:
f
(x)
=
1 cos 2
(x)
f (x) = sec2 (x)
Integrals of Trigonometric Functions:
1. sin(u)du = - cos(u) + C
2. cos(u)du = sin(u) + C
3 tan(u)du = - ln cos(u) + C
4. cot(u)du = ln sin(u) + C
5. sec(u)du = ln sec(u) + tan(u) + C
