First Principle

This document provides 50 rules for computing derivatives of various functions including: 1) The derivative of a polynomial function is another polynomial function with one less degree. 2) Derivatives of sums and differences are the sums and differences of the individual derivatives. 3) Derivatives of products involve using the product rule. 4) Derivatives of composite functions use the chain rule. 5) Common functions like exponentials, logarithms, trigonometric functions and their inverses have specific derivative rules. The document also provides rules for computing derivatives of applications of the above functions.
