The first principle finds a derivative without using any:
AReal number
BGiven point
CKnown function
DStandard rule
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Standard rule
1. The rules of differentiation are shortcuts derived later.
2. The first principle goes back to the definition itself.
3. So it needs no standard rule to be applied.
