Power rule and Chain rule 5-24-07
 
Today's lesson consisted of two parts...power rule and chain rule, both derivative rules eliminating having to use the definition of the derivative.  Click here for notes on both derivative rules.  After each rule was explained, students worked on four practice problems (handwritten on overheads).  The homework is a practice worksheet.  There will be a homework quiz next class on the power rule and chain rule problems.
