Calculus II (Math 252 Section 002, 36879)
Spring 2016

Content

Prerequisites You need to be able to use algebra and trigonometric techniques easily, and you need to be able to quickly calculate derivatives and basic anti-derivatives from Calculus I.
Topics This course covers further topics in single-variable calculus, including techniques of integration; applications of integration; convergence of sequences and series; parameterized curves; and polar coordinates.
Goals
By the end of the appropriate section you should be able
  • Compute definite and indefinite integrals using a variety of techniques
  • Apply integration in modeling settings, drawn from mathematics and the natural and social sciences
  • Understand and determine convergence of infinite series, including Taylor series
  • Understand and use parameterizations of curves, including in polar coordinates
