Is Euler Method still on AP Calculus AB or BC?

<p>seriously, couldn't find **** about it</p>

<p>also, are ERROR bounds in sequence/series still on the AP Exam?</p>

2

<p>I remember doing FRQs with Euler Method questions in my BC class. The FRQs were pretty recent too.</p>

3

<p>It’s still on it. I’m in Calc BC right now.</p>

4

<p>Not covered in AB.</p>

5

<p>I just took a sample example, I keep getting 40-50% damnit</p>

6

<p>it’s BC topic. It appeared in MC and FR.</p>

7

<p>Euler is not that hard though.
BC topic.
Lagrange Error Bound/Taylor’s Theorem is in BC only, too.
But it is kinda basic that you could use a bit of studying and get a good score :)</p>

8

<p>Argh, I keep getting mislead by those questions the practice test.</p>

9

<p>euler’s is covered in bc, because it was on actual ap practice test that our teacher gave us which i completely did not know how to do -___-;; bc’s gonna kill mee</p>

10

<p>it’s in teh BC test</p>

11

<p>Newton’s method has been removed, I just found out (sigh!!! lol and I thought that was the easier of the lot)</p>

12

<p>Euler’s method is just basically a glorified tangent line approximation, you’re just doing multiple approximations. :)</p>

13

<p>Euler’s is DEFINITELY on BC (it showed up on one of last year’s FRQs for BC). My teacher also mentioned Lagrange’s error bound showing up very recently on BC FR, so I would think it’s there.</p>

<p>Euler’s method doesn’t appear on AB, but would there ever be a case where using it on the AB exam would save time or be easier than another method? I have found instances where using L’Hopital’s has actually saved time on limits on AB questions, rather than using messy trig identities.</p>
