The derivative measures a function's instantaneous rate of change (slope of tangent). Ex: d/dx(x^n) = nx^(n-1). Pro-Tip: Think slope! For position, its derivative is velocity; for velocity, it's acceleration.

Optimization uses calculus to find the absolute maximum or minimum values of a function. Ex: To find critical points, set `f'(x) = 0`. Pro-Tip: Always check ALL critical points AND interval endpoints for global max/min!

FTC Part 2 connects definite integrals to antiderivatives. Formula: ∫[a,b] f(x)dx = F(b) - F(a) (where F'(x)=f(x)). Pro-Tip: It makes calculating the exact 'area under a curve' super efficient – just find the antiderivative & plug in!

Chain Rule helps differentiate composite functions (function of a function). Formula: d/dx [f(g(x))] = f'(g(x)) * g'(x). Ex: d/dx [(x^2+1)^3] = 3(x^2+1)^2 * (2x). Pro-Tip: Always think Outside-Inside! Differentiate the outer function first, then multiply by the inner's derivative.

Related Rates: How fast one quantity changes w.r.t. time when it's linked to another changing quantity. Ex: If water fills a cone, how fast does height change with volume? Pro-Tip: Draw, identify variables, then implicitly differentiate w.r.t. time (t)!

Limits reveal a function's behavior as its input gets *arbitrarily close* to a specific value. Ex: `lim (x->0) (sin(x)/x) = 1`. Pro-Tip: Direct substitution often works, but watch for tricky cases like 0/0 – those require more clever techniques!

An integral finds the *total accumulation* or area under a curve. Ex: Finding total distance traveled from a velocity function. Pro-Tip: It's essentially the *antiderivative* – reversing differentiation. Always add +C for indefinite integrals!
