One-sided Derivative
Definition. Let y = f(x) be a function and let a be in
the domain of f. The right-hand derivative of f at
x = a is the limit
f’+(x) =lim f(a+h)h – f(a)
h +

Interpretations
If f’(a) is the instantaneous rate of change of f(x) at
x=a
(2x - 2) (x2 - 2x – 8)
= (x + 1) - (x + 1)2
Properties and Formulas
x2 + 2x + 1
Example: f(x) = x+1
(2x+2)(x+1) – 1(x2 + 2x + 1)
f’(x) = (x + 1)2
2x2 + 2x + 2x + 2 - x2 - 2x - 1
= x2 + 2x + 1
x2 + 2x + 1
= x2 + 2x + 1
= 1
Properties and Formulas
d (f’(g(x))) = f’(g(x))g’(x)
dx
Example: f(x) = (x3+1)2
f’(x) = 2(x3+1)(3x2)
= 6x5 + 6x2
f(x) = (x3+1) (x3+1)
f’(x) = 3x2(x3+1) + 3x2(x3+1)
= 3x5 + 3x2 + 3x5 + 3x2
Properties and Formulas
Example: f(x) = (x-2)(x3+1)3
f’(x) = (1)(x3+1)3 + 3(x3+1)2(3x2)(x-2)
= (1)(x3+1)3 + 3(x3+1)2(3x2)(x-2)
= x9+3x6+3x3+1+9x9-18x8+18x6-
36x5+ 9x3- 18x2
= 10x9 - 18x8 + 21x6 - 36x5 +12x3

Properties and Formulas
x+1
Example: f(x) = (x – 2)2
(x – 2)2(1) – 2(x-2)(1)(x+1)
f’(x) = (x - 2)4
x2 - 4x + 4 + 2x2 - 2x - 4
= (x - 2)4
3x2 - 6x
= (x - 2)4
1 2x + 2
= (x - 2)2 - (x - 2)3
Alternative Solutions
For product rule, we could simplify the polynomial
by expanding the factors and then take the derivative
(x2 - 2x – 8) (2x - 2)
= - (x + 1)2 + (x + 1)
Alternative Solutions
x+1
Example: f(x) = (x – 2)2
= (x - 2)-2 (x + 1)
= -2(x - 2)-3 (x + 1) + (1) (x - 2)-2
2x + 2 1
= - (x - 2)3 + (x - 2)2
Alternative Solutions
By simplifying, the original polynomial, we will
always arrive at the answer through the simplest
solution
x2 + 2x + 1
Example: f(x) = x+1
= (x+1)(x+1)
x+1
= x+1
f’(x) = 1
