Course Overview

Applications of the definite integral: Methods of integration, polar coordinates, parametric equations, infinite and power series.

Required Text

No text is required. Links to videos covering the material and the reading are on Canvas. The text used for this course is Calculus Volume 2 by Gilbert Strang and Edwin “Jed” Herman published by OpenStax. The text can be accessed for free here: https://openstax.org/books/calculus-volume-2/pages/1-introduction

Course Materials

A graphing calculator, such as a TI-83/84, TI-89, or a Casio fx-9750GII, is strongly recommended.

Units

There are 15 units, each with an exercise set worth 20 points and a quiz worth 10 points. Late exercises will have a 5% penalty and late quizzes will have a 10% penalty. The breakdown of the units is as follows:

  1. Areas Between Curves
  2. Volumes, Lengths and Surface Areas
  3. Work
  4. Integration by Parts and Trigonometric Integrals
  5. Inverse Trig Functions and Trigonometric Substitutions
  6. Partial Fractions
  7. Improper Integrals
  8. Numerical Integration
  9. Exponential, Log and Hyperbolic Functions
  10. Parametric and Polar Coordinates
  11. Conics
  12. Sequences and Series
  13. Convergence Tests
  14. Power Series
  15. Taylor

Grading policy

Grades will be based on the percentage of points earned. Letter grades will be assigned as follows:

             90 – 100%: A

             80 – 89%: B

             70 – 79%: C

             60 – 69%: D

             0 – 59%: F

Student Learning Outcomes

  1. Use integration by parts and partial fraction decomposition.
