Description
This lesson introduces the First and Second Derivative Tests in the context of polynomials. (The lesson on Curve Sketching uses these tests to examine other types of functions.) The lesson begins with a review of increasing and decreasing functions as well as critical numbers. Then, the First Derivative Test is introduced, along with an application. After that, concavity and inflection points are introduced. Finally, the Second Derivative Test is shown, along with an example.
This lesson is appropriate for both AP Calculus AB and BC.
Detailed answer keys are included.
The topics covered include:
-Review: Increasing and Decreasing Functions
-The First Derivative Test
-Using the First Derivative Test
