Higher Derivatives

• This topic simply involves repeatedly differentiating!
• Learn the two different types of notation for higher derivatives – both are used a lot!
• Some problems will ask you to find a formula for the nth derivative – in this case, differentiate enough times to see the pattern and then build a formula describing the pattern.
• Some problems will ask you to find, for example, the 100^th derivative – in this case, again differentiate enough times to see the pattern and then figure out the result!
