Term
Fundamental Theorem of Calculus Part 1
Definition
If f is continuous on [a,b] & g(x)=∫[(a to x) f(x)dt] for x in [a,b], then g(x) is continuous and differentiable and g'(x)=f(x).
Term
Fundamental Theorem of Calculus Part 2
Definition
If f is continuous on [a,b] then ∫[(a to b) f(t)dt]=F(b)-F(a), where F is any anti-derivative of f.
Term
Pythagorean Theorem
Definition
If a & b are the legs of a triangle, and c is the hypotenuse, then (a^2)+(b^2)=(c^2).
Term
Riemann Sums
Definition
The area between a curve f(t) & the x-axis over an interval [a,b] is related to F(t), an anti-derivative of f(t).
Term
Absolute (Global) Maximum
Definition
A function f has an absolute max at (c,f(c)) if f(c)≥f(x) for all x in the domain of f. f(c) is the absolute maximum value of x.
Term
Absolute (global) minimum
Definition
A function f has an absolute min at (c,f(c)) if f(c)≤f(x) for all x in the domain of f. f(c) is the absolute minimum value of x.
Term
Relative Maximum
Definition
A function f has a relative max at (a,f(a)) if f(a)≥f(x) for all x near a.
Term
Relative Minimum
Definition
A function f has a relative min at (a,f(a)) if f(a)≤f(x) for all x near a.
Term
Extreme Value Theorem
Definition
If f is continuous on a closed interval [a,b] then f obtains an absolute max (c,f(c)) and absolute min (d,f(d)) for some c & d on the closed interval [a,b].
Term
Fermat's Theorem
Definition
If f has a local (relative) max or min at (c,f(c)) & if f'(c) exists then f'(c)=0.
Term
Contrapositive
Definition
If f'(c)≠0, then either f'(c) does not exist or (c,f(c)) is not a local max or min.
Term
Closed Interval Method - how to find the absolute max/min of f(x) on [a,b].
Definition
1)Find Critical numbers of f on [a,b].
2)Find f(c) for each critical number c.
3)Find f(a) & f(b).
4)Order the output values and find the max and min.
Term
Critical Numbers
Definition
A number c of the function f in the domain of f such that either f'(c)=0 or f'(c) DNE.
Term
Intermediate Value Theorem
Definition
If f is a continuous on [a,b] & N is any # between f(a) & f(b) then there is a c between a & b such that f(c)=N.
Term
Rolle's Theorem
Definition
Let f be a function that satisfies the following three hypotheses:
1)f is continuous on [a,b]
2)f is differentiable on (a,b)
3)f(a)=f(b)
Then, there is a number c between (a,b) such that f'(c)=0.
Term
Mean Value Theorem
Definition
Let f be a function that satisfies the following two hypotheses:
1)f is continuous on closed interval [a,b]
2)f is differentiable on open interval (a,b)
Then there is a c in (a,b) such that f'(c)=[(f(a)-f(b))/(a-b)].
