Announced 2/18/2015: Here are 30 Random Integrals directly from old midterms in the exam archive and here are comments and answers.
Announced 2/12/2015:
- Here are some overheads from lecture that review integration.
- Here is a Flowchart of the Integration Methods.
- Here is the most updated list of integrals we know in one step. These integrals, and only these integrals, are the ones you can quote and use in one step on the tests, all other integrals require that you show work.
- And a thorough discussion and review of all the integration methods.
- Here are 11 integrals to practice along with solutions.
- Here are 12 more integrals to practice (solutions are included). (Typo note: The A and C are wrong in my solution to 12, can you find the correct A and C?).
Announced 2/5/2015: Please see if the following postings will help:
- Here are 7 basic practice problems and 5 challenge problems concerning only integration by parts along with full worked out solutions to the first seven and solutions to the 5 challenge problems. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE attempt these integrals for practice! Even if you feel comfortable with by parts, you still need to practice so that these calculations become routine.
- Here is a list of the integrals we know in one step.
- Here is a discussion of essential trig identities for 7.2.
- And here is a Summary of cases for 7.2 Trig integrals.
Announced 2/2/2015: Here are the exam 1 solutions. Grades will be up by the end of the week. Please read through the work examples in the previous postings.
Announced 1/30/2015: Check out the new postings below:
- Here is every significantly different type of work problem that I could find on old finals for Math 125 (15 examples in all) and here are solutions that I just wrote up and solutions to the cable problem (these pages were missing from the other solutions sorry).
- Here is a Overview of 6.4 and 6.5.
- Here are some old lecture overheads that give a short review of work.
Announced 1/21/2015: Please check out these:
- A Brief Summary of Exam 1 Material.
- Here is an old quiz that I gave on u-substitution (solutions included)
- Here are four practice problems (from lecture) for finding the area Between curves
  and here are the solutions.
- Here is the the list of basic integrals handed out in quiz section and here are solutions.
- In addition to all the specific reviews posted here (and at the right of the page), here is a quick review for exam 1.
- A 6.1-6.3 Review contains a quick overview of 6.1 through 6.3. These topics will be included in Exam 1.
- Again, here is a link to the departmental exam archive.
  And here is a link to my exam archive (my exams archive has detailed posted solutions for all my problems).
Announced 1/16/2015: Some postings to check out:
- 0Here is an overview of chapter 5
- Here is a a list of the integrals you can do in one step. Up to section 5.4, the only integration method is "simplify and hope". That is, simplify your integrand, and hope that you end up with something in this table. If not, you can't do the integral at this point in the quarter (but you can always approximate a definite integral with a Reimann sum).
- Here is a further discussion to help you think about Section 5.5: Substitution and change of variable. Please read this right before or after the lecture on 5.5 as a supplement.
- Here is a link to the departmental exam archive if you want to get a jump on studying (and if you want to assess how well you are understanding the material so far). Also, here is a link to my exam archive (the one's labeled honors tend to be more challenging, so understand that, but you do have the tools to complete them as well).
Announced 1/7/2015: I will post several review sheets throughout the term, so check back frequently. Here is my first group of postings (they can also be found at the lower right part of this page):
- Here is a summary of the steps in constructing a Riemann sum (You may want to bring this to class).
- List of Basic Antiderivatives. Currently, our only integration techinique is to simplify the function algebraically into a sum of functions in this table. With our current methods, we can only find antiderivatives of sums and constant multiples of functions that look EXACTLY like the functions in this table.
- Riemann Sums (pdf): This is a copy of a couple of the overheads from my 5.1 lecture concerning approximating rectangles. In addition, it includes most of the solution to problem 5.1/24 on the second page.
- Calculus I Review (pdf): Contains a table of the basic derivatives, the basic derivative applications, and finishes with a review of trig and algebra (you received a copy if you attended quiz section).
Announced 1/1/2015: Welcome to Math 125! This webpage contains the course syllabus, the homework schedule, a course calendar and links to various Math 125 materials. Throughout the quarter I will also be posting review sheets and announcements. Please check back regularly. For now, you should get the required access:
- For this course, you are required to have webassign access that goes with the book Calculus, by James Stewart. You may purchase the hardcopy of the book bundled with the webassign access at the bookstore OR you may buy the homework access code online which comes with the eBook. You are not required to purchase the hardcopy of the book (although you might find it is nice to have for quick reference).
  - If you have already used webassign with this book (perhaps you took Math 124 at UW) and purchased a lifetime of edition code, then you can just log in and you should see the class and the assignments. No new purchase is needed in this case.
  - If you have NOT used webassign with this book, then you must purchase an access code. The least expensive way to do this is to get the departmental negotiated rate through this website: http://www.cengagebrain.com/micro/uwmathcalc. For $70, you will get the access code (which is good for Math 124, 125, 126, and 324) and the eBook. During the first two weeks, you can log into webassign as a guest. You are welcome to do this if you are still evaluating the class. But if you intend to take the course you should purchase the access code as soon as possible.
- Your first homework assignment will be visible the first day of class. Most assignments will be due on the Wednesday of the week after they appear (typically about 10 days after they first become visible). The most accurate due dates can be seen on webassign.
- In Math 125, each assignment is broken into three parts (Labeled HW 1A, HW 1B, HW 1C for instance). This is for your convenience in breaking up your work, but all three of these will be due at the same time.
- Log in to webassign to see this and all subsequent homework assignments. (How To Use Webassign)
- Once you type in an answer for a particular problem (or part of a problem) on webassign, a submit button appears. You submit one problem (or part of a problem if you like) at a time and your points for that problem are stored as part of your total score. You are allowed 5 attempts at each answer in Webassign (except for T/F and multiple choice questions, for which you are typically allowed one try).
- More general information about the course can be found here.
