Chapters

  1. 1 Mathematical induction 2 sections

    Proof by mathematical induction for series in sigma notation and for divisibility, including forming a conjecture and proving it.

  2. 2 Vectors 7 sections

    Vectors in two and three dimensions: notation, addition and scalar multiples, components and unit vectors, the dot product, angles between vectors, and projections.

  3. 3 Vectors and motion 5 sections

    Displacement, velocity and acceleration vectors, calculus with vectors, resultant forces and velocities, projectile motion, and the Cartesian equation of a projectile's path.

  4. 4 Inverse trigonometric functions 2 sections

    The inverse sine, cosine and tangent functions, their restricted domains, ranges and graphs, exact values, transformations, and the symmetries and identities that link them.

  5. 5 Further calculus 7 sections

    Parametric differentiation, inverse functions and their derivatives, derivatives and integrals involving inverse trigonometric functions, the reverse chain rule, integration by substitution, and integrating sin²x and cos²x.

  6. 6 Further applications of calculus 5 sections

    Sketching polynomials from their zeroes, multiple zeroes and the derivative, related rates of change, modified exponential growth and Newton's law of cooling, and volumes of solids of revolution.

  7. 7 Differential equations 5 sections

    Differential equations and their solutions, slope fields, separable differential equations, equations of the form dy/dx = g(y), logistic growth, and modelling real situations with differential equations.

  8. 8 The binomial distribution 3 sections

    Bernoulli trials, binomial probabilities, the mean and variance of binomial distributions, and the distribution of sample proportions with its normal approximation.
