Unit 1: Limits and Continuity
Numerically, graphically, and algebraically classify and analyze functions.
Evaluate, if it exists, the value of a limit from a graphical approach, including one-sided limits.
Evaluate limits analytically, including direct substitution, cancellation and rationalization, applying the properties of limits.
Evaluate limits of exponential functions analytically.
Evaluate limits of trigonometric functions analytically.
Graphically and analytically, apply the three part definition of continuity to determine if a function is continuous at a point.
Understand and apply the intermediate value theorem. Distinguish between infinite limits and limits at infinity, and use them to identify asymptotes.
