deriválása

Deriválása is a Hungarian term that translates to "derivation" or "differentiation" in English, depending on the context. In mathematics, it specifically refers to the process of finding the derivative of a function. The derivative of a function at a given point represents the instantaneous rate of change of the function at that point, or the slope of the tangent line to the function's graph at that point. This concept is fundamental to calculus and has wide-ranging applications in physics, economics, engineering, and many other fields. The process of deriválása involves applying specific rules and formulas based on the type of function being differentiated, such as power rules, product rules, quotient rules, and chain rules.

Beyond its strict mathematical definition, deriválása can also be used more broadly in Hungarian to describe the process of deriving or obtaining something from a source. For instance, one might speak of the "deriválása" of a new technology from a scientific discovery, or the "deriválása" of a legal precedent from a court ruling. In these broader senses, it implies a process of extraction, development, or logical consequence. However, its most common and precise usage remains within the realm of calculus and mathematical analysis.
