This lecture covers Rolle's Theorem, which states that for a continuous and differentiable function on a closed interval, if the function values at the endpoints are equal, then there exists a point where the derivative is zero. The Mean Value Theorem is also discussed, showing the existence of a point where the derivative is equal to the average rate of change over the interval. Applications of these theorems are demonstrated through examples.
