For instance, we will learn
how the derivative can be used (i) to determine rate of change of quantities, (ii) to find
the equations of tangent and normal to a curve at a point, (iii) to find turning points on
the graph of a function which in turn will help us to locate points at which largest or
smallest value (locally) of a function occurs We will also use derivative to find intervals
on which a function is increasing or decreasing Finally, we use the derivative to find
approximate value of certain quantities 6
