1 Outline of MA 111 (4/29/09) Pre-Calculus – Functions Different ways to represent functions New functions from old Elementary functions: algebraic (power functions, polynomials, rational functions) and transcendental functions (exponential and log functions, trig functions, inverse trig functions)

2 Outline continued Calculus – Limits and the Derivative Concept of limit; limits of functions Definition of the derivative as a limit Calculating Derivatives: The Facts and the Rules 2 nd derivatives and concavity Differentiability Implicit differentiation

3 Outline continued Applications of the Derivative: Rates of change in natural & social science Exponential growth and decay Critical points, extrema, inflection points Optimization problems Related rate problems

4 Outline continued Definite Integrals and Antiderivatives Concept and calculation of antiderivatives (most general and specific, given an initial condition) The definite integral of a function on an interval and connection to areas Approximating definite integrals via Riemann sums (rectangles and trapezoids) Finding exact definite integrals via the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus Part 1 Manufacturing antiderivatives via FTC Part 2 Average value (height) of a function on an interval
