(1) Compute the following derivatives.

(a) Computeddxx

nusing the power rule.

(b) Computeddx(x

n�1 · x) using the product rule and the power rule for xn�1.

(c) Computeddx(x

n+1/x) using the quotient rule and the power rule for xn+1.

(d) Computeddxa

x, where ax = ex ln a

.

(e) Computeddxx

x, where xx

= ex lnx.

(2) Consider the function f : [0, 1] ! R, defined by f(x) = x+ x2+ x3

+ x4.

(a) Explain why f(a) = 2 for some 0 < a < 1.

(b) Give two reasons why f 0(b) = 4 for some 0 < b < 1.

Hint: use the intermediate value theorem and mean value theorem.

(3) A complex number is any number of the form z = x + iy, where x and y are real

numbers, and i =p�1. We write x+ iy = a+ ib if x = a and y = b.

(a) Find the complex solutions of x2+ 4 = 0

(b) Find the complex solutions of x2+ 2x+ 2 = 0.

Euler’s formula is: ei✓ = cos(✓) + i sin(✓). It follows from comparing power series.

(c) Show that ei⇡ = �1.

(d) Expand both sides of ei(x+y)= eix · eiy to derive the formulas

cos(x+ y) = cos(x) cos(y)� sin(x) sin(y) and sin(x+ y) = cos(x) sin(y) + sin(x) cos(y).

This is one way to re-derive trig identities on the fly. (I never remember them.)
