Differentiability and Continuity
The following statements summarize the relationship
between continuity and differentiability.
1. If a function is differentiable at x = c, then it is continuous at x = c. So, differentiability implies continuity.
2. It is possible for a function to be continuous at x = c and not be differentiable at x = c. So, continuity does not imply differentiability.

1. If a function is differentiable at x = c, then it is continuous at x = c. Differentiability implies continuity.
2. It is possible for a function to be continuous at x = c and not differentiable at x = c. So, continuity does not imply differentiability.
3. Continuous functions that have sharp turns, corner points or cusps, or vertical tangents are not differentiable
at that point.
Very Important, so we’ll say it again:

Differentiability and Continuity
The following alternative limit form of the derivative is useful in investigating the relationship between differentiability and continuity. The derivative of f at c is
provided this limit exists (see Figure 2.10).
Figure 2.10
![Page 8: Differentiability 2.1 Day 2 2015. HWQ The slope of the curve at any point is: Slope at any point on the graph of a function:](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bfce1a28abf838ca99e1/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Differentiability and Continuity
Note that the existence of the limit in this alternative formrequires that the one-sided limits
exist and are equal.
These one-sided limits are called the derivatives from the left and from the right, respectively.
It follows that f is differentiable on the closed interval [a, b] if it is differentiable on (a, b) and if the derivative from the right at a and the derivative from the left at b both exist.

Figure 2.11
Differentiability and Continuity
If a function is not continuous at x = c, it is also not differentiable at x = c.
For instance, the greatest integer function (defined as the greatest integer less than or equal to x) is not continuous at x = 0, and so it is not differentiable at x = 0 (see Figure 2.11).
![Page 10: Differentiability 2.1 Day 2 2015. HWQ The slope of the curve at any point is: Slope at any point on the graph of a function:](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bfce1a28abf838ca99e1/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The function shown in Figure 2.12 is continuous at x = 2.

However, the one-sided limits
and
are not equal.
So, f is not differentiable at x = 2 and the graph of f does not have a tangent line at the point (2, 0).

For example, the function shown in Figure 2.7 has a vertical tangent line at (c, f(c)).

A function is differentiable if it has a derivative everywhere in its domain. It must be continuous and smooth. Functions on closed intervals must have one-sided derivatives defined at the end points.
A function will not have a derivative1)Where it is discontinuous 2)Where it has a sharp turn 3)Where it has a vertical tangent

The derivative is the slope of the original function.
The derivative is defined at the end points of a function on a closed interval.
