Continuity and Differentiation Problems

The document provides examples of functions and problems involving continuity, differentiation, and logarithmic differentiation. Some key points covered include: 1. Conditions for a function f(x) to be continuous at a point x=a, namely that the left-hand and right-hand limits of f(x) as x approaches a are equal to f(a). 2. Examples of determining if given functions are continuous at specific values of x, and finding values of parameters to ensure continuity. 3. Rules for differentiation, including the chain rule, implicit differentiation, and differentiation of parametric, logarithmic and inverse trigonometric functions. 4. Second order derivatives and examples of determining second order derivatives of
