Abstract

Derivatives in calculus and Determinants of square matrices of any size in linear algebra are

extensively used in STEM, Financial and Business elds to mention some. In this research

paper, we develop mathematical formula to drill determinants for evaluating the derivatives

of a function of higher order n. First, we introduce the Ceiling Determinant of a two by

two matrix and extended this denition to nd the derivative of a function of n order. This

new approach will help students to easily memorize the formula and apply to their major

academic discipline. We have application examples on complex variable and geometry.
