Preliminaries
Course Number: Math 1
Course Title: Calculus 1
Course Credit: 3 Units
Course Description:
This is a first course in calculus. It covers limits, continuity, derivatives of algebraic and transcendental functions (exponential, logarithmic, trigonometric, hyperbolic and
their inverses), applications of derivatives, differentials, antiderivatives, definite integrals, Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, and applications of definite integrals.
Learning Outcomes
At the end of the course, the students would be able to:
Evaluate the limit of a function using limit theorems
Define continuity at a point and on an interval
Distinguish between continuous and discontinuous functions
Use the definition to get the derivative of a function
Apply the differentiation rules on various types of functions
Apply the derivative tests to find maxima/minima of a function, graph functions and solve optimization problems
Compute antiderivatives of various functions and definite integrals
Solve problems involving areas regions, volumes of solids of revolution, arc lengths of curve and differential equations
