Differentiating using the product and quotient rules. Follows on from the chain rule and only looks at expressions involving powers of x. I always teach this before I move on to differentiating trigonometric functions, logs and exponentials so I can include more complex expressions. There are 20 questions which are quite meaty which could be split over two lessons, one for product and one for quotient. There are questions on finding equations of normals and tangents at the end. Worked solutions are included and also a black and white version
