Course Outcomes
Students who successfully complete this class should be able to:
- Apply basic convergence tests for series.
- Represent functions as a power, Maclaurin, or Taylor series.
- Apply calculus techniques to parametric equations.
- Find areas and arc lengths in polar coordinates.
- Perform vector operations, including dot and cross products.
- Find equations of lines and planes in three-space.
- Find derivatives, integrals, velocity, acceleration, arc length, and curvature of vector functions.
- Calculate partial derivatives and apply to find tangent planes, linear approximations, extrema, and saddle points.
- Calculate double integrals over rectangular and general regions, both in rectangular and polar coordinates.
