Final Exam
All the policy for the midterm remains valid. Please bring your ID!
Calculator
usage is the same (Yes, again calculators are for part A only)
What to Study for the final
The final will be cumulative. So refer to the Midterm section to see what
you need to know from sections 2.1-4.2
4.3 Exercise 24,26,43,59
4.4 Exercise 19, 29, 33, 50, 51, 52
4.5 Example 1-6, Exercises 1-22 (This is a lot. Focus on the Homework
problems first.)
5.1
Example 2-7, Exercise 23. You should also know how to draw the given angle
on the unit circle.
5.2 Pictures of two special triangles(The isosceles right triangle and the
half of the equilateral triangle) will be given
with the length of the sides given. You will need to
know how to use them to find the value of the trigonometric functions.
Exercise 25, 31, 61
5.3 Exercise 35-40. You should know the amplitude, period, and phase shift.
5.4
There will be one multiple choice problem from this section. You will be
given a graph,
and you should be able to tell which is the right equation
for the graph.
7.1 There will be problem(s) on proving trigonometric identities.
7.2
Example 2,5,7
7.4 Exercises 29-48
CALCULUS
2.1 None. (The purpose of this section is just
to give you an idea of instantaneous rate of change.
Just read through to help your understanding.)
2.2 Example 4,7, 8. Exercise 5, 9
2.3 Exercise 9-20
2.6 Exercise 7-10, 15,17

IMPORTANT!!!
For the Exam,
BRING YOUR ID - Student ID or other Photo ID(e.g. driver's licence) to exam. If you don't have any, see me Monday or Wednesday after class.
The exam will be two parts, part A and B. Only in part A you will be allowed to use calculators.
At the beginning only part A will be handed out. If you do not need calculators any more, or if you have finished part A, then you
may raise your hand and get part B. When doing part B, you may still correct/work on part A, but you will not be allowed to use
calculators.
Of course, if you do not intend to use calculators at all, you may receive both part A and B at the beginning.
Calculators are only to assist you in logical thinking, and all problems will be designed so that it would be solvable without the
need for calculators.
After 1 hour has passed, everyone will be requested to put away there calculators and part B will be handed out to those who
have not received it.
What calculators can I bring?
Students may bring scientific or graphical calculators(at most two) to examinations. Some recommended graphical calculators are the Texas Instruments TI-82, TI-83, TI-85 and TI-86 and the Sharp EL-9300 and EL-9600 models.Unacceptable machines include the following:
You will be able to solve the problems without the need of calculators as long as you know how to do algebraic manipulations. Do not expect that you will be able to solve the problems just by using calculators. Some problems will be conceptual in nature, so it will test your depth of understanding of the material rather than calculation skills.
Rules for calculator usage.
I am aware of the fact that some calculators can transfer data to
other calculators. This act is prohibited during the exam.
Also, you may not borrow calculator from another student during the
exam. So if you plan to use one, bring one. Be prepared for any malfunction
or battery drain.
Midterm will be on 19th June, 6:00-8:15PM in class.
It will be on 2.1-4.2 excluding chapters 3.3-3.5.
Special Office hours in the week of the exam
16th Monday : 4:00PM to 5:50PM in MLC
18th Wednesday : 3:00PM to 5:50PM in MLC
MLC will be open in other
hours, you will be able to get help from other TAs.
Note: The schedule currently on web is the spring semester schedule.
Summer hours are
shorter, so call to see if anyone is available before going.
What to study
Most important things you need to know are as follows:
2.1 : Example 4, Example 6
2.2 : Example 2, Vertical line test, All graphs in page 164.
2.3 : Exercise 9, 11, 13, 15, 19, 21
2.4 : Example 1, Example 2
2.5 : Exercise 13,19,35,37,51
2.6 : Example 3, Example 4
2.7 : All Examples, Homework problems
- This is a lot, so if you can't
do it, look at examples and quiz#2....
give up and concentrate
on other stuff.
2.8 : Example 2, Example 5, Example 6
2.9 : Horizontal line test, Example 4, Example 7, Exercise 39
3.1 : End behavior, Example 5, Example 6
3.2 : Example 1
3.6 : Example 1, Example 2, Example 3
4.1 : Example 2, Example 8, Example 9
4.2 : Example 1, Example 2, Example 6
If you know all this (maybe except chapter 2.7), you will be able to solve
about 75% of the exam.
Make sure that you understand these first, and then look at other problems.
Things which will not be on the exam (I did not cover these in class)
2.4 : Example 6
2.6 : Example 6
2.8 : Example 3
2.9 : Graph of inverse functions, Domain of inverse functions.
3.1 : Example 7, Example 8
3.2 : Everything after page 275
3.6 : Everything after page 313
4.1 : Example 5, Example 6, Example 7
