We show that if a function is differentiable at a point, then it is also continuous. We then establish the basic algebraic laws for differentiation. Those includes Leibniz's rule, the quotient rule, and the chain rule. Once we have that, we prove Rolle's lemma and use it to show the mean value theorem.
