Overview

This course covers the learning outcomes and goals of understanding logarithmic derivatives in calculus. Students will learn to differentiate various logarithmic functions, including ln(1/x), ln(x*sqrt(x^2-1)), and ln((2y+1)^5/sqrt(y^2+1)). The course also includes topics such as logarithmic differentiation, derivatives of exponential functions, and the comparison between regular derivatives and logarithmic derivatives. The teaching method involves solving problems and equations related to logarithmic derivatives. This course is intended for learners familiar with single-variable calculus and interested in deepening their understanding of derivatives and logarithmic functions.
