Master Derivatives of Logarithmic Functions with These 4 Essential Examples!
In this video, we’ll dive deep into finding derivatives of logarithmic functions. We’ll cover both natural logarithms and logarithms with bases other than ‘e’. Through 4 comprehensive examples, you’ll learn how to apply the formulas for logarithmic derivatives effectively. We’ll utilize the chain rule, the product rule, and—very importantly—the properties of logarithms. Always consider if you can use logarithmic properties to “break up” your function before differentiating; it can make your life much easier! While this technique isn’t applicable in every case, it’s a valuable strategy to keep in mind.
What You Will Learn:
How to find derivatives of natural logarithm functions.
Techniques for differentiating logarithms with bases other than ‘e’.
Applying the chain rule and product rule in the context of logarithmic functions.
Utilizing properties of logarithms to simplify functions before differentiation.
Strategies for approaching derivative problems without a graph.
