x ( f
1 is also periodic with same period T.
If f(x) is periodic with period T, f(x) is also periodic with same period T.
Period of x – [x] is 1. Period of algebraic functions x , x2, x3 + 5 etc. does't exist.
If limf(x)
x→a does not exist, then we can not remove this discontinuity. So this become a non-removable discontinuity or essential discontinuity.
If f is continuous at x = c and g is discontinuous at x
= c, then
(a) f + g and f – g are discontinuous (b) f.g may be continuous
If f and g are discontinuous at x = c, then f + g, f – g and fg may still be continuous.
Point functions (domain and range consists one value only) is not a continuous function.
If a function is differentiable at a point, then it is continuous also at that point.
i.e., Differentiability ⇒ Continuity, but the converse need not be true.
If a function 'f' is not differentiable but is continuous at x = a, it geometrically implies a sharp corner or kink at x = a.
If f(x) and g(x) both are not differentiable at x = a then the product function f(x).g(x) can still be differentiable at x = a.
If f(x) is differentiable at x = a and g(x) is not differentiable at x = a then the sum function f(x) + g(x) is also not differentiable at x = a.
If f(x) and g(x) both are not differentiable at x = a, then the sum function may be a differentiable function.
Differentiation and Applications of Derivatives : dx
dy is dx
d (y) in which dx
d is simply a symbol of operation and not 'd' divided by dx.
If f´(x0) = ∞, the function is said to have an infinite derivative at the point x0. In this case the line tangent to the curve of y = f(x) at the point x0 is perpendicular to the x-axis.
Of all rectangles of a given perimeter, the square has the largest area.
All rectangles of a given area, the squares has the least perimeter.
A cone of maximum volume that can be inscribed in a sphere of a given radius r, is of height
3 r 4 .
A right circular cylinder of maximum volume that can be inscribed in a square of radius r, is of height
3 r 2 .
If at any point P(x1, y1) on the curve y = f(x), the tangent makes equal angle with the axes, then at the point P, ψ =
4 π or
4
3π. Hence, at P tan ψ = dx dy = ±1 Indefinite Integral :
If F1(x) and F2(x) are two antiderivatives of a function f(x) on an interval [a, b], then the difference between them is a constant.
The signum function has an antiderivative on any interval which does not contain the point x = 0, and does not possess an anti=derivative on any interval which contains the point.
The antiderivative of every odd function is an even function and vice-versa.

Quadratic Equations and Inequations :
An equation of degree n has n roots, real or imaginary.
If f(α) = 0 and f´(α) = 0, then α is a repeated root of the quadratic equation f(x) = 0 and f(x) = a(x – α)2. In fact α = –b/2a.
If α is repeated common root of two quadratic equations f(x) = 0 and φ(x) = 0, then α is also a common root of the equations f´(x) = 0 and φ´(x) = 0.
In the equation ax2 + bx + = 0 [a, b, c ∈R], if a + b + c = 0 then the roots are 1, c/a and if a – b + c
= 0, then the roots are –1 and – c/a.

Four in between and two at either end. Now if three females P, Q, R are to be arranged so that no two are together we shall use gap method i.e., arrange them in between these 6 gaps. Hence the answer will be 6P3.
Together : Suppose we have to arrange 5 persons in a row which can be done in 5! = 120 ways. But if two particular persons are to be together always, then we tie these two particular persons with a string. Thus we have 5 – 2 + 1 (1 corresponding to these two together) = 3 + 1 = 4 units, which can be arranged in 4! ways. Now we loosen the string and these two particular can be arranged in 2! ways. Thus total arrangements = 24 × 2 = 48.
If we are given n different digits (a, a2, a3 ... an) then sum of the digits in the unit place of all numbers formed without repetition is (n – 1)!(a1 + a2 + a3 + ....
