Join Nagwa Classes

Attend live Mathematics sessions on Nagwa Classes to learn more about this topic from an expert teacher!

In this lesson, we will learn how to determine the convexity of a function as well as its inflection points using its second derivative.

Students will be able to

understand how the second derivative of a function relates to its convexity and how to apply the second derivative test,
find the intervals over which a function is convex upwards or convex downwards,
understand the relationship between inflection points and convexity,
find the inflection points of a function.
