For the upcoming midterm exam and the final exam, it will be helpful to know what integral facts you can simply state, and which require justification (i.e., which you'll have to show work on). Here is the policy: the integrals on page 484 all can be used without any justification. You can have these on your notesheet and use them at will. You may have other integral facts on your notesheet, but you will need to include all work when using anything not in this table.
And to be clear, you can put anything you want on your notesheet.

I've added last winter's midterms to the old exams page listed at right. For some reason, I don't have a solutions page for midterm 1: I'll be writing one this weekend.
Also, note that problem 4 from last winter's exam is not something I'd expect you to solve: it relies on ideas that we covered last year in the first writing problem.
