1 AP Calculus AB SUMMER ASSIGNMENT Dear future Calculus AB student We are ecited to work with you net year in Calculus AB. In order to help you be prepared for this class, please complete the summer assignment. We would like to recommend that you do this Short Answer Section first. In that packet there are directions and review of the main topics that you need for this packet as well as for the multiple choice packet. Do all work on these packets. Show work to support your answers. These problems are due the first day of class. On the first day of class you will have a short amount of time to ask questions before turning these packets in. Do not epect there to be time in class for ALL questions to be resolved. There will be classwork assignments on the material starting with the third week of school. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to either of us. Mr. Mossholder: SCMossholder@fcps.edu Mrs. Rigby: SERigby@fcps.edu See you in August! Mr. Mossholder and Mrs. Rigby SHORT ANSWER SECTION Objectives: For objectives # - #5 you should be able to do all without a calculator. Identify functions as even or odd Algebraically Graphically. Know key points and basic shapes of essential graphs f, f, f ln sin, cos f e f f f. Review Trigonometry Evaluate trig values Evaluate inverse trig values Solve trig equations. Understand characteristics of rational epressions (be able to sketch without a calculator) Vertical asymptotes Horizontal asymptotes Zeros Holes 5. Be able to use properties of natural logarithms to solve equations 6. Know your calculator

2 I. Symmetry Even and Odd Functions Quick Review Eample: y Even Function Symmetric about the y ais f ( ) f ( ) for all Eample: y Odd Function Symmetric about the origin (equivalent to a rotation of 80 degrees) f ( ) f ( ) for all To determine algebraically if a function is even, odd, or neither, find f f, f, or neither. Eample: Determine if f is even or odd. and determine if it is equal to f f Therefore, f is an odd function. Determine if the following functions are even, odd, or neither.. f. f 5. f. f

3 II. Essential Graphs For each graph, show two key points (label coordinates) and basic shape of the graph.. f. f. f sin π -π π π - -. f 5. f 6. f cos π -π π π III. Trigonometry Review On each right triangle with a hypotenuse of, label the lengths of the other sides: 5 = radians 90 = radians 0 = radians 60 = radians Make sure you know the following identities: In calculus we always use radians! Never degrees. Pythagorean identities: sin cos Double angle identities: sin sin cos tan sec cos cos sin cot csc

4 . Evaluate the sine, cosine, and tangent of each angle without using a calculator. It is not necessary (ever a) again!) to rationalize the denominator. (ie, an answer of b) 5 does not need to be written ) c) 6 d) e) 5 f) 6. Find two solutions to the inverse trig equations. 0. Draw a triangle, if necessary. Label θ and sides. Determine reference angle. Notice restrictions 5. Place in correct quadrant. a) cos b) cos c) sec d) tan e) cot f) sin. Solve for y. Notice the only difference between question # and # is the domain restrictions #. Inverse trig functions have one answer due to domain restrictions. Note: sin - is the same as arcsin a) y sin b) y cos c) y arc tan d) y csc e) y arccos 0 f) y cot

5 IV. Rational Functions Rational functions are ratios of polynomials: h f g h has a zero when h 0 (which occurs when f 0 and the factor does not cancel) E. h h h Therefore, h 0 when. h has a vertical asymptote when g 0 and the factor that causes g 0 does not cancel E. h h h Therefore, h has a vertical asymptote when. h has a hole (is undefined but the limit eists) when g 0 and the factor that causes g 0 cancels from both f and g. E. h h h Therefore, h has a hole when. Note that h because these two functions do not have the same domain. h has a horizontal asymptote at y consider first the largest eponent of (DNE). If leading coefficient. g has the larger eponent, then a when lim h a g. If f and h or lim h a. To determine lim h f has the larger eponent, then lim h lim 0. If the eponents are the same, consider the E. h Leading coefficients Therefore, lim h and h has a horizontal asymptote at y.

6 Once the basic characteristics of rational epressions are determined, the functions can be sketched without a calculator: E. h Zero at. Vertical Asymptote: Hole when Horizontal Asymptote: y Graph points as needed until you see the shape. For each rational function below: a) Find all zeros b) Write the equations of all vertical asymptotes c) Write the equations of all horizontal asymptotes d) Find the value of any holes e) Sketch the graph (no calculator) showing all characteristics listed (Not all functions will have all characteristics listed above). f. f f. f f 6 6. f
