AP Calc Review

    Day 1
    We went over some of the more basic integration techniques in class. I was a little surprised at what I remembered; I figured I'd have forgotten anything that was that long ago, but most of it came back to me. One thing I realized was that I need to work on recognizing u-subs that are a bit more complicated.

    I was worried about this topic; I didn't remember Bernoulli equations, homogeneous functions, second order diffyQs...I was relieved when I realized the AP test wasn't going into that complexity. All I really need to review are the equations related to logistics curves.

    As was always the case, remainders are proving a challenge. I've gotten the hang of the alternating series remainder, but I'll need to look over the one for the integral test.
  • Taylor Series

    Taylor Series
    Easy! All I need to do is review the Tayor Series of basic functions, especially ln(x).
  • Advanced Integration Techniques

    I need to review the tabular method with integration by parts. Infinite integrals will only be a problem if something with a vertical asymptote comes up.

    rcos(theta)=x
    rsin(theta)=y
    tan(theta)=y/x
    x^2+y^2=r^2

    The calculus walk was great review. The different locations should make the review stick in our heads. I'm ready for the test.

    The test was pretty easy. The only difficult question was a bizarrely worded Taylor series free response.
