I don’t think I’m alone in harboring ill-feelings toward trig functions, particularly as they apply to integration. Don’t get me wrong, I understand the importance of trig. But I find Calculus at its most enervating when trig is involved. The…
Integration by Parts (IDP) is a means of integration products of functions that can’t be solved through simple antiderivation or u-substitution. We use it to simplify said product into something that’s easier to integrate. The formula for integration by parts…
L’Hospital’s Rule allows for the evaluation of the limits of fractions that reduce to indeterminate forms, i.e. these: Essentially, we can solve these limits by dividing the derivatives of the numerator by the derivative of the denominator. For a layman…
Welcome to my first ever blog. I never imagined I’d start a blog. I have mostly viewed personal blogs, such as this, as self-aggrandizing, even narcissistic. Why should other people read my reports of what I’m doing? If what I’m…
