Question: Question 4 . Divide the rectangle above representing f ( t + h ) * g ( t + h ) into 4 pieces: One

Question 4. Divide the rectangle above representing f(t+h)*g(t+h) into 4 pieces: One should represent
f(t)*g(t)f(t+h) and f(t)as a small 'nudge' of the function (or output)f,att,i.e.df. Write an
expression for the area of the largest rectangle in terms of the 4 smaller rectangles.
Question 5.We can use the limit definition of the derivative here to find the derivative of the product.
Writing out the definition of the derivative we see
d(d)t(f(t)*g(t))=limh0f(t+h)g(t+h)-f(t)g(t)h
What does the numerator of the fraction represent in terms of the rectangles you have drawn? How can
you interpret the limit?
Question 6. Using your answer from the last question, how does the product rule appear in your answer
to Question 4? What you have should almost be the product rule but with one additional term. Make a
conjecture (the mathematical word for guess)asto why this term can be ignored?
