2. Ready? When you think you know the answer,
I’m going to ask you a lot of questions about math. These are facts that you should know extremely well. You also need to be able to recall them quickly if you want to succeed in Calculus.
When you think you know the answer,
(or if you give up ) click to get to the next slide to see if you were correct.
Ready?

3. Define an
Even Function

4. Note: It is NOT enough to know the graph is symmetric with respect to the y-axis.

5. Define an
Odd Function

6. Again, please note that it is NOT enough to know that the graph has origin symmetry.

7. See if you can identify the function that probably goes with each of these simple graphs….

9. How about these?

11. What about this one?

12. Did you know it?
You are a tiger!

13. How about these?

14. and
respectively

15. and finally:

17. The graph of x = a is…

18. … a vertical line.

19. The graph of y = a is…

20. … a horizontal line.

21. OK…that’s enough about graphs!
Let’s move on…

29. Think “flower” & “root”

46. OK…enough of the logs already!

47. The formula for the slope of a line is

49. Point slope equation of a line ?

51. Midpoint Formula = ?

53. Define:

54. {
x for x 0
|x|
-x for x<0

55. Here comes your favorite thing!
Yeah! Trigonometry!

81. because:

83. (or undefined)

87. or

88. OK…now let’s see if you know your identities!

90. I hope you knew that one!!!

92. OK, that’s really the same one!

94. 1-sin^2(x)
You rock!!!

96. Did ya get the ol’ “stamp of approval” on that one?

98. They’re laughing because this is really the same one again!

99. Ho Ho Ho!!

100. I don’t know why Santa thought this was funny!

102. This one is very important!!

103. Now for a little algebra and you’ll be done!!

106. (almost finished!!!)

107. There’s that two you wanted before!!

108. If you know all this material, then you are prepared to begin calculus… All you need now is a sharp mind, a sharp pencil and a really big eraser!

109. GOODBYE!!!!
ADIOS!
AUFWIEDESEHEN!
CHOW!
