1 AP Calculus November 9-10, 2016 Mrs. Agnew
Curve Sketching #1 AP Calculus November 9-10, 2016 Mrs. Agnew

2 Essential Question Essential Vocabulary
What is the significance of the Mean Value Theorem? How do you sketch curves using derivatives? Essential Vocabulary Mean Value Theorem First Derivative Test Increasing/Decreasing Function

3 Zeros & Symmetry Zeros of a function Symmetry
Where graph intersects x-axis Symmetry Y-axis (plug in –x for x) Origin (plug in –x and –y)

4 Discontinuities Asymptotes Point of Discontinuity (HOLE) Examples
Vertical: where function is undefined (not hole) Horizontal: degree of numerator vs. denominator Slant: degree of numerator is one more than denominator Point of Discontinuity (HOLE) Examples

5 Increasing/Decreasing
What are critical numbers? If f ‘(x) > 0 on an interval, then f(x) is increasing on that interval. If f ‘(x) < 0 on an interval, then f(x) is decreasing on that interval.

6 First Derivative Test Examples Given c is a critical number of f(x)
If f ‘ changes from + to – at c, then f has a relative maximum at c. If f ‘ changes from – to + at c, then f has a relative minimum at c. If f ‘ does not change at c, then f has no extreme value. Examples

7 Mean Value Theorem If f is continuous over [a,b] and differentiable over (a,b), then there exists a number c between a and b such that… Calculus slope = Algebra slope Instantaneous ROC = Average ROC Animation

8 Rolle’s Theorem Let f be continuous on [a,b] and differentiable over (a,b). If f(a) = f(b), then there exist at least one c such f ’(c) = 0. Guarantees the existence of an extreme value in the interior of a closed interval. Examples
