Finding the derivative of a function allows you to find the gradient of any point on a curve. If you can find the gradient, you can find the equation of tangents and normals to a curve at a given point. This A Level revision blog will explain how to do this. Continue reading Tangents and Normals to a Curve – A Level Maths Revision
Looking for info on second order derivatives? The derivative of a function (if it can be differentiated) is a function that describes the rate of change at any point on the original function. As the derivative is a function, it can also be differentiated, giving the second derivative. Continue reading Second Order Derivatives – A Level Maths Revision
