The solutions provided here are from students in the class. These are not only correct solutions, but are meant to be examples of exemplary student work. notes (to help prepare for pre-class quizzes) pre-class quizzes are at WebCT For a limited time only, you may print out the quizzes from here and turn them in at the beginning of class on the day they are due. Do not get used to this because you will soon be required to use WebCT for these quizzes. pre-class quiz due Friday, August 29, 2003 pre-class quiz due Wednesday, August 27, 2003 (if you did not yet turn in this quiz, you can still do that)

Chapter 12: Sequences and Series (from Visual Calculus by Lawrence S. Husch at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville)

§11.1 and §14.1: link to animation that shows the drawing of a cycloid (from Visual Calculus by Lawrence S. Husch at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville)

§11.1 and §11.5: Java applets (by TJ Murphy at the University of Oklahoma)

• the Parametric Curves Applet behaves much like a graphing calculator but will simultaneously display the graphs of t versus x(t), t versus y(t), and x(t) versus y(t), on separate sets of axes. The user has additional options to (1) show the progression of points being plotted as t increases; (2) trace simultaneously along all three curves; and (3) trace simultaneously along all three curves with tangent lines.

• the Polar Curves and Area Applet behaves much like a graphing calculator but adds two features: the user has options to (1) plot points on the user-specified polar curve given by r(t) beginning at a user-specified value of t; and (2) fill in the area bounded by a user-specified polar curve given by r(t) beginning at a user-specified value of t.

• Download the browser plug-in needed to run the applets.

• Read the guide for installing and troubleshooting the plug-in (by Jason M. McDaniel at the University of Oklahoma).
