To differentiate using the sum rule, you differentiate each term separately and then sum the results.
So, for the first term, , the derivative is .
For the second term, , the derivative is .
Adding these derivatives together, you get:
.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
