Theorem:
If a function is differentiable at 1 , then is continuous at 1 .
Examples:

differentiable at = 0.
Remarks:
1. Differentiability at a number implies continuity at the
number.
2. Continuity at a number does not imply differentiability at
the number.
3. If a function is not continuous at 1 then it is not
differentiable at the number.

Remark:
A function defined on an open interval containing 1 is
differentiable at 1 if and only if + (1 ) and (1 ) both exist
and are equal.
Examples:
1. Show that () = || is continuous at 0 but not
differentiable at 0.
2. Given: () = |1 2 |
Show that is continuous at 1 but not differentiable at 1.
() = |1 2 |
