Calculus covers differential calculus and the beginnings of integral calculus. Students study limits, continuity, derivatives, integrals of polynomials, exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric functions. Students also explore applications of both derivatives and integrals as they relate to rates of change, optimization, and area under a curve. The course requires extensive use of the graphing calculator and emphasizes the development of advanced analytical skills. Prerequisite: successful completion of Precalculus.
Note: Students may self-select honors-level work within the course.
A graphing calculator is required for this course. Popular models include the Texas Instruments TI-84 and the HP Prime.
Completion of Pre-Calculus with a C- or better both semesters, OR Trigonometry with a grade of B or better both semesters.
