Calculus (1 Credit or 126 Hours) Prerequisite: Pre-calculus

Calculus is the paramount of mathematics course offerings at Jeff Tech. A detailed

review of pre-calculus with an introduction of new material that will build on the previous

information begins with limits and continuity. The course focuses on the following

topics: Differentiation, applications of differentiation, integration, transcendental

functions, applications of integration, integration techniques, L'Hopital's rule, and proper

integrals, infinites series, conic sections plan curves, parametric equations, and polar

coordinates, and vectors and the geometry of space. Applications from career and

technical areas and other academic areas will be incorporated as appropriate. The idea

behind this approach is to allow students to see both practical and abstract uses of
mathematics.
