Open notesUse limits to predict behavior near a point and continuity to decide whether substitution is legal.
Build derivatives from the limit definition, then move fluently among power, constant, sum, and difference rules.
Use advanced derivative rules when the function's structure is layered, hidden, or defined through an inverse relationship.
Translate rates in words, tables, graphs, and motion contexts into derivative statements with units and meaning.
Use derivatives as evidence about shape: increasing, decreasing, concavity, extrema, optimization, and graph relationships.
Use the integral as accumulation and connect signed area to net change, not just geometric picture-matching.
Slope fields, separable equations, Euler approximations, and logistic language all ask you to connect algebra to behavior over time.
Use definite integrals to compute average value, net change, area between curves, volume, and arc length from a clearly chosen model.
Treat parametric, polar, and vector-valued functions as motion or geometry written in a different coordinate language.
Series questions reward a decision tree: classify the terms, choose a test, check conditions, estimate error, and justify the conclusion.
