A derivative is a branch of calculus used to find the slope of the tangent line. It usually differentiates the linear, quadratic, constant, and polynomial functions with respect to its independent variables. <\/span><\/p>\n

The derivative can also be used to differentiate the linear or polynomial equations and the multivariable functions. It can be defined by using the limits. The limit is also a branch of calculus used to find the numerical value of a function at a specific point.<\/span><\/p>\n

In this article, we will learn the definition, notation, formula, rules, and examples of derivatives along with a lot of examples.<\/span><\/p>\n

What is derivative?<\/b><\/h2>\n

In calculus, the <\/span>derivative<\/span><\/a> is the slope of a line that lies tangent to the curve at a specific point. It can also be defined as the instantaneous rate of change of function as it approaches to zero by applying the limit. <\/span><\/p>\n

The derivative can find the differential of the exponential function, polynomial function, constant function, linear function, logarithmic function, or the trigonometric function. <\/span><\/p>\n

The derivative has various types to solve complex calculus problems. The types of differentiation are:<\/span><\/p>\n
