lim f(x) = lim f(x) = ℓx c+x c -
whenf(x) – f(c) < ε x – c < δ
• lim f(x) exists, is finite and is equal to ℓ so that
• f(c)=ℓ which means that lim f(x) = f(c)
Let f(x) be a function defined in a closed interval [a,b] and let c
be a point belonging to this open interval

Inverse function theorem
Let I be a limited or unlimited interval and let f(x) be a function
defined in I and here continuous.
If f(x) is invertible then is continuous.f (x) -1

Let f(x) be a function defined and continuous in a closed and limited interval [a , b].
If f(a) ● f(b) < 0 then there’s a point c belonging to the open interval (a , b) such that f(c) = 0.

Let f(x) be a function defined and continuous in a closed interval [a , b];
then the function attains its Maximum and its minimum in [a , b];
so there’s at least a point c belonging to this interval such that:
f(x) ≤ f(c) or f(x) ≥ f(c) for all x belonging to the closed interval [a , b].

Let f(x) be a continuous function in a closed and limited interval [a , b];
if m and M are its minimum and Maximum values in this interval, and if K is a number between m and M,
then there’s some number c in [a , b] such that f(c)=K
When the function f(x) isn’t continuous at the point c, we say that f(x) has a discontinuity at that point. We can then distinguish three types of different discontinuities as follows:
1. Discontinuity of the first kind
2. Discontinuity of the second kind
3. Discontinuity of the third kind

The point c is called a point of discontinuity of the third kind for f(x) in the following case:
