ACMMM083

use the Leibniz notation for the derivative: \(\frac{dy}{dx}=\lim_{\mathit{δx}\rightarrow0}\frac{\delta y}{\delta x}\) and the correspondence \(\frac{dy}{dx}=f'\left(x\right)\) where \(y=f(x)\)

interpret the definite integral \(\int_a^bf\left(x\right)dx\;\) as area under the curve \(y=f\left(x\right)\) if \(f\left(x\right)>0\;\)

ACMMM046

expand \(\left(x+y\right)^n\) for small positive integers \(n\)

ACMMM085

interpret the derivative as the slope or gradient of a tangent line of the graph of \(y=f(x)\)

establish the formulas \(\frac d{dx}\left(\sin x\right)=\cos x,\;\text{ and }\frac d{dx}\left(\cos x\right)=-\sin x\) by numerical estimations of the limits and informal proofs based on geometric constructions

ACMMM117

establish and use the formula \(\int e^xdx=e^x+c\)

ACMMM127

interpret \(\int_a^bf\left(x\right)dx\;\) as a sum of signed areas

ACMMM162

establish and use the formula \(\int\frac1xdx=\ln\;x\;+c\) for \(x>0\)

ACMMM077

interpret the difference quotient \(\frac{f\left(x+h\right)-f(x)}h\) as the average rate of change of a function \(f\)

ACMMM081

examine the behaviour of the difference quotient \(\frac{f\left(x+h\right)-f(x)}h\) as \(h\rightarrow0\) as an informal introduction to the concept of a limit

ACMMM095

sketch curves associated with simple polynomials; find stationary points, and local and global maxima and minima; and examine behaviour as \(x\rightarrow\infty\) and \(x\rightarrow-\infty\)

ACMMM020

recognise features of the graphs of \(x^2+y^2=r^2\) and \(\left(x-a\right)^2+\left(y-b\right)^2=r^2\), including their circular shapes, their centres and their radii

ACMMM107

use the increments formula: \(\delta y\cong\frac{dy}{dx}\times\delta x\) to estimate the change in the dependent variable \(y\) resulting from changes in the independent variable \(x\)

ACMMM130

understand and use the theorem \(F'\left(x\right)=\frac d{dx}\left(\int_a^xf\left(t\right)dt\right)=f\left(x\right)\), and illustrate its proof geometrically

recognise features of the graphs of \(y=\frac1x\) and \(y=\frac a{x-b}\), including their hyperbolic shapes, and their asymptotes.

ACMMM021

recognise features of the graph of \(y^2=x\) including its parabolic shape and its axis of symmetry.
