The Derivatives. The supplied textbook contents page identifies this as Chapter 16; detailed chapter content still requires verification against the printed chapter pages.
Rigorous mathematical formulation of derivative as a limit of difference quotient, first principle derivations of trigonometric and transcendental functions, chain rule, and geometric tangent slopes.
⚠️ Common Error: Cancelling h from denominator before establishing the limit form.
✓ Correct Approach: Simplify the numerator algebraically until h factors out cleanly from every term.
Why: Direct substitution yields the indeterminate form 0/0.
