Learn the fundamental concepts of differential calculus through this comprehensive 11-hour video course covering limits, derivatives, and their applications. Master the introduction to limits including piece-wise functions, discontinuities, and limit laws while developing skills in finding limits algebraically through various examples and challenging problems. Explore continuity concepts, continuity laws, and the Intermediate Value Theorem, then advance to limits at infinity, horizontal asymptotes, and the Squeeze Theorem with practical applications. Dive into derivatives starting with tangent lines, rates of change, and the definition of derivatives, progressing through notation and higher derivatives. Study essential differentiation rules including the power rule, product rule, quotient rule, and chain rule with extensive examples and practice problems. Examine trigonometric derivatives, implicit differentiation, inverse trigonometric derivatives, and logarithmic differentiation techniques. Apply derivative concepts to solve related rates problems, find maximum and minimum values, and understand the Extreme Value Theorem and Mean Value Theorem. Develop curve sketching skills using the first and second derivative tests, tackle optimization problems, and explore Newton's Method and L'Hospital's Rule. Conclude with parametric equations, polar coordinates, polar curves, and an introduction to antiderivatives, with additional practice through university-level quiz problems from UBC and McGill.
