l(x) m(x) n(x )
f(x) g(x) h(x )
, where f, g, h, l, m, n, u, v, w are differentiable
functions of x then F (x) = u(x) v(x) w(x )

Tangent at (x 1 , y 1 ) is given by (y – y 1 ) = f(x 1 ) (x – x 1 ) ; when, f(x 1 ) is real.
And normal at (x 1 , y 1 ) is (y – y 1 ) = – f(x)
(x – x 1 ), when f(x 1 ) is nonzero
real.
2. Tangent from an external point
Given a point P(a, b) which does not lie on the curve y = f(x), then the equation of possible tangents to the curve y = f(x), passing through (a, b) can be found by solving for the point of contact Q.
f(h) = h a
f(h) b
7. Lagrange’s Mean Value Theorem (LMVT) :
If a function f defined on [a, b] is
(i) continuous on [a, b] and (ii) derivable on (a, b) then there exists at least one real numbers between a and b (a < c < b) such
that b a
f(b) f(a )
= f(c)
8. Useful Formulae of Mensuration to Remember : 1. Volume of a cuboid = bh. 2. Surface area of cuboid = 2(b + bh + h). 3. Volume of cube = a^3 4. Surface area of cube = 6a^2 5. Volume of a cone = 3
r 2 h.
6. Curved surface area of cone = r ( = slant height) 7. Curved surface area of a cylinder = 2rh. 8. Total surface area of a cylinder = 2rh + 2r^2. 9. Volume of a sphere = 3
r^3.
10. Surface area of a sphere = 4r^2. 11. Area of a circular sector = 2
r^2 , when is in radians.
12. Volume of a prism = (area of the base) × (height). 13. Lateral surface area of a prism = (perimeter of the base) × (height). 14. Total surface area of a prism = (lateral surface area) + 2 (area of the base) (Note that lateral surfaces of a prism are all rectangle). 15. Volume of a pyramid = 3
(area of the base) × (height).
16. Curved surface area of a pyramid = 2
(perimeter of the base) ×
(slant height). (Note that slant surfaces of a pyramid are triangles).
1. If f & g are functions of x such that g(x) = f(x) then,
f(x)^ dx = g(x)^ + c^ ^
{g(x)+c} = f(x), where c is called the constant of

Intervals :
Intervals are basically subsets of R and are commonly used in solving inequalities or in finding domains. If there are two numbers a, b R such that a < b, we can define four types of intervals as follows :
Symbols Used (i) Open interval : (a, b) = {x : a < x < b} i.e. end points are not included. ( ) or ] [ (ii) Closed interval : [a, b] = {x : a x b} i.e. end points are also included. [ ] This is possible only when both a and b are finite. (iii) Open-closed interval : (a, b] = {x : a < x b} ( ] or ] ] (iv) Closed - open interval : [a, b) = x : a x < b} [ ) or [ [
The infinite intervals are defined as follows : (i) (a, ) = {x : x > a} (ii) [a, ) = {x : x a} (iii) (– , b) = {x : x < b} (iv) (, b] = {x : x b} (v) (– ) = {x : x R}
