AP Calculus AB topics

<p>Can these be on the test?</p>

<p>Homogenous equations
Financial Problems (intrest compounded, ect)
Shell method for volume</p>

<p>yes, me wondering that aussi</p>

<p>homogeneous and financial problems i woudl say are VERY unlikely</p>

<p>shell method is VERY likely</p>

<p>just IMO</p>

<p>Shell method is not on the test. Dont' know about the other two.</p>

<p>how sure are you of that odan?</p>

<p>shell method-helps u, if washer doesnt work out</p>

<p>i gotta important quesiton</p>

<p>is double angle (trig) and powerreducing formulas needed for the exam?</p>

<p>eg. sin 2u = 2sinu cos u</p>

<p>I think most important double angle ones will be variances of the cos2x one because these help integrate.</p>

<p>so...what does that mean lol, sry, dont really understand what u said knavish</p>

<p>You guys should read this if your taking CALC exam</p>

<p>If you were asked to integrate cos^2(x) you have to use the double angle identity to make it (1+cos(2x))/2. Know what I mean?</p>

<p>None</p>

<p>too few characters</p>

<p>will we have to integrate (cosx)^2 like knavish said on the AB calc ?</p>

<p>how the do you do that?</p>

<p>95% sure.</p>

<p>And I do believe we have to know the double angle identities. Just spent like half an hour studying them :)</p>

<p>half an hour? </p>

<p>there are only like 3 of them to memorize o_O</p>

<p>yea, there are only 3, for each haha</p>

<p>lol, along with some other stuff, inverse trig identities, various trig inverses, stuff, etc. etc.</p>
