Definition 4.2.1: A function f : S → ℝ has a relative maximum at c ∈ S
if some δ > 0 satisfies f x ≤ f c whenever x ∈ S and |x - c| < δ.
The notion of relative minimum reverses the inequality.

Lemma 4.2.2: If f : (a, b) → ℝ is differentiable at c ∈ (a, b)
and has a relative minimum or maximum at c, then deriv f c = 0.
Theorem 4.2.3 (Rolle): If f : [a, b] → ℝ is continuous on the closed
interval, differentiable on the open interval, and satisfies f a = f b,
then there exists some c ∈ (a, b) with deriv f c = 0.
Theorem 4.2.4 (Mean value theorem): If f : [a, b] → ℝ is continuous on
the closed interval and differentiable on the open interval, then some
c ∈ (a, b) satisfies f b - f a = deriv f c * (b - a).
Theorem 4.2.5 (Cauchy's mean value theorem): If f, φ : [a, b] → ℝ are
continuous on the closed interval and differentiable on the open interval,
then some c ∈ (a, b) satisfies
(f b - f a) * deriv φ c = deriv f c * (φ b - φ a).
Proposition 4.2.6: If I is an interval and f : I → ℝ is differentiable
with deriv f x = 0 for every x ∈ I, then f is constant on I.
Proposition 4.2.7: For a differentiable real function on a nondegenerate interval, the derivative is nonnegative everywhere exactly when the function is increasing, and nonpositive everywhere exactly when the function is decreasing.
Proposition 4.2.8:
Proposition 4.2.9: Let f : (a, b) → ℝ be continuous, let c ∈ (a, b),
and assume f is differentiable on (a, c) and (c, b).
Proposition 4.2.10:
The derivative within the closed interval at the left endpoint equals the usual
derivative when f is differentiable there.
The derivative within the closed interval at the right endpoint equals the usual
derivative when f is differentiable there.
Theorem 4.2.11 (Darboux): If f : [a, b] → ℝ is differentiable and y
lies strictly between deriv f a and deriv f b, then some c ∈ (a, b)
has deriv f c = y.
Example 4.2.12: the function x ↦ (x * sin (1/x))^2 is differentiable on ℝ,
has derivative 0 at the origin, but its derivative is not continuous there.
