Card 1 of 24

What does f′(x)f'(x)f′(x) give for the curve y=f(x)y=f(x)y=f(x)?

A

For angles in radians, lim⁡h→0sin⁡hh=1\displaystyle \lim_{h\to0}\frac{\sin h}{h}=1h→0lim​hsinh​=1 and lim⁡h→0cos⁡h−1h=0\boxed{\displaystyle \lim_{h\to0}\frac{\cos h-1}{h}=0}h→0lim​hcosh−1​=0​.

B

The curve is convex (concave upwards).

C

f′(x)<0f'(x)<0f′(x)<0

D

The gradient of the tangent at each xxx.
