Domain of f' the set of points in the domain of f for which the limit exists; may be smaller than the domain of f.
If the derivative exists, then it is said that f is differentiable at x.
Differentiable function A function that is differentiable at every point of its domain.
Derivative of a function is the function that is used to calculate the slope of the tangent line for a given function.
