1 AP CALCULUS 2015 Summer Assignment 2014 Welcome to AP Calculus, The purpose of this assignment is to have you practice the skills necessary to be successful in AP Calculus. All of the skills in this packet are skills that you should have mastered prior to taking this course. Each question was carefully selected and every question is equally important. There should be NO calculators used in completing this packet unless it is otherwise specified. While graphing calculators will be used sometimes in class and on the AP exam, you must be able to complete these problems BY HAND. AP Calculus is a fast paced course that is equivalent to a college level class, and there is a lot of material that must be covered before the AP exam in May. Due to this, we CANNOT use valuable class time to reteach these pre-requisite skills. Therefore, make sure you have MASTERED every topic in this packet before returning to school in the fall. This assignment will be collected ON THE FIRST DAY, and any portion that I choose, up to and including the entire packet, will be graded as a test. No partial credit will be given. No late submissions will be accepted. You must show ALL WORK to support your answers, and you may attach separate sheets to this packet to do so. However, your final answers MUST be written next to the questions in this packet. All work shown should be NEAT and ORGANIZED. If I cannot follow it, you will not receive credit. In addition, you may be tested on this material at any moment during the first week of school. If you find that you have difficulty in doing this assignment, or if you believe that it is too long, then it may be in your best interest to pursue other class options. ~ Mr. Haralson ~ Mr. Haralson Nemeth *If you want to use the course textbook to help with this assignment, you can pick it up from me in room C-6 at any time before the end of school. If you want to pick it up in the summer, either myself or Mrs. Kurek (jkurek@cboek12.org) and we can arrange a time for you to come. If you need to contact me at any point, please send me an at lnemeth@cboek12.org

2 AP CALCULUS DIAGNOSTIC TEST All students must take the online Calculus Readiness Test and bring a print-out of their results to the first day of class. The test consists of 40 multiple choice questions and covers topics from Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, and Pre-Calculus. This test will NOT factor into your grade, so you should take it honestly. Since it does not count, there is no reason to take the test multiple times. The test can be found at the following link: After you finish the test, you will be able to print your results on the final page. Again, you must bring a copy of these results to hand in on the first day of class along with the summer assignment.

15 AP CALCULUS SELF TEACHING The ability to teach yourself a mathematics topic is a skill that will be both necessary and invaluable throughout college and the rest of your life. It will also be necessary in AP Calculus, as the amount of material and limited amount of time require students to become masters of their own education. To prove that you have to ability to learn independently, you will be required to study the first topics of calculus on your own, and will be tested on these topics without any review in the classroom. You are free to use any resources you want in order to master the topics listed below, such as the textbook, websites, etc. When you feel you are ready, you must complete the problems below. These may also count toward your summer assignment test grade. Topics Limits One Sided Limits Infinite Limits Limits At Infinity Finding Limits From Graphs
