All Differentiation Formulas

1. Basic Formulas

d/dx (c) = 0

d/dx (x) = 1

d/dx (x^n) = n x^(n-1)

d/dx (c f(x)) = c f'(x)

2. Algebraic Rules

Sum Rule: d/dx [f(x)+g(x)] = f'(x)+g'(x)

Difference Rule: d/dx [f(x)-g(x)] = f'(x)-g'(x)

Product Rule: d/dx (uv) = u dv/dx + v du/dx

Quotient Rule: d/dx (u/v) = (v du/dx - u dv/dx) / v^2

3. Trigonometric Functions

d/dx (sin x) = cos x

d/dx (cos x) = -sin x

d/dx (tan x) = sec^2 x

d/dx (cot x) = -csc^2 x

d/dx (sec x) = sec x tan x

d/dx (csc x) = -csc x cot x

4. Inverse Trigonometric Functions

d/dx (sin^-1 x) = 1 / √(1 - x^2)

d/dx (cos^-1 x) = -1 / √(1 - x^2)

d/dx (tan^-1 x) = 1 / (1 + x^2)

d/dx (cot^-1 x) = -1 / (1 + x^2)

d/dx (sec^-1 x) = 1 / (|x| √(x^2 - 1))

d/dx (csc^-1 x) = -1 / (|x| √(x^2 - 1))

5. Exponential Functions

d/dx (e^x) = e^x


d/dx (a^x) = a^x ln a

6. Logarithmic Functions

d/dx (ln x) = 1/x

d/dx (log_a x) = 1 / (x ln a)

7. Chain Rule

If y = f(g(x)), then dy/dx = (dy/du) (du/dx)

Special Form:

d/dx (x^x) = x^x (1 + ln x)
