Let f : R → R be differentiable at c ∈ R and f c = 0 . If g x = f x , then at x = c , g is:

not differentiable if f ' c = 0

For x ∈ R , f x = log ⁡ 2 - sin ⁡ x and g x = f f x , then

g is differentiable at x = 0 and g ' 0 = - sin ⁡ log ⁡ 2

g is not differentiable at x = 0

Prove that the function f ( x ) = x 2 - 1 ; x ≥ 1 1 - x ; x < 1 is not differentiable at x = 1

To check the differentiability of a function at x = 1 , we need to find L H D & R H D Notice that f ( 1 ) = 1 2 - 1 = 0 R H D = lim h → 0 f ( 1 + h ) - f ( 1 ) h ⇒ R H D = lim h → 0 ( 1 + h ) 2 - 1 - 0 h ⇒ R H D = lim h → 0 h 2 + 2 h h ⇒ R H D = lim h → 0 h + 2 = 2 Now, L H D = lim h → 0 f ( 1 ) - f ( 1 - h ) h ⇒ L H D = lim h → 0 0 - ( 1 - ( 1 - h ) ) h ⇒ L H D = lim h → 0 - h h = - 1 So even though, L H D , R H D are finite, but they are not equal. So the function is not differentiable at x = 1
