Differentiation — Rigorous Treatment

The MVT — the average rate of change is achieved at some interior point — is the engine of differential calculus. Taylor’s theorem gives rigorous polynomial approximation error bounds.

WHAT STUDENTS WILL LEARN
Define the derivative rigorously; prove differentiation rules
State and prove the Mean Value Theorem
Apply Taylor’s theorem with Lagrange remainder
Connect differentiability to local linear approximation
