AP Calculus BC – Chapter 1 Test Topics • Evaluate limits • From a graph (including left- and right-sided limits • By using a table • Algebraically • When a limit DNE because the one-sided limits are different, state both one-sided limits and state that they are not equal before stating the limit DNE.
AP Calculus BC – Chapter 1 Test Topics • Evaluate limits (continued) • one-sided limits; • involving special trigonometric functions.
AP Calculus BC – Chapter 1 Test Topics • Evaluate limits (continued) • Use the ε-δ definition to find δ for a given ε.
AP Calculus BC – Chapter 1 Test Topics • Continuity. • Know and use the Definition of Continuity: • is defined; • exists (explicitly state this); • Both one-sided limits must be stated before this can be determined. • ∴ f (x) is continuous @ x = c.
AP Calculus BC – Chapter 1 Test Topics • Continuity (continued) • Know which functions are always continuous and their domains. • Polynomial functions • Rational functions • Radical functions • Trigonometric functions
AP Calculus BC – Chapter 1 Test Topics • Continuity (continued) • Algebraically determine points of discontinuity. • Removable and nonremovable. • Gaps, holes, asymptotes • Use and apply the Intermediate Value Theorem. • The function is continuous; • f (a) < k < f (b). ∴, by the IVT, there exists a c in [a, b] such thatf (c) = k.
AP Calculus BC – Chapter 1 Test Topics • Trigonometry • Values of all six trig functions at each special angle of the unit circle. • Double-angle formulas for sine and cosine. • Prove identities. • Do not use identities to prove identies!
AP Calculus BC – Chapter 1 Test Topics • What to study: • Your Notes • PowerPoints (they will be updated) • Assignments • Quiz 1.2-1.3 & Trig Review • WS Trig Review • WS Limits • WS Sec. 1.3 – 1.4
AP Calculus BC – Chapter 1 Test Topics • The test will be part with calculator and part without. • Remember: The key to success is to communicate what you know, not just get a correct answer. • Suggestion: Get together with a study group – there is power in numbers! • Wear a Falcon shirt, preferably purple !
