Riemann sums
• The Riemann sum associated to the definite integral dxxfb

choice of n and a choice of how to pick kc ’s, is
n

)( , where n
abx ,
xkaxk , and kc is in ],[ 1 kk xx . Common ways to pick kc are: left endpoints, right
endpoints, upper sum, lower sum.

Substitution Rule
• Usually, try to choose u the inside of a composite function.
• Compute du .
• Use the u equation and the du equation to substitute for everything in the original integral so
that the new integral has only u ’s. Use either the “pattern matching method” or the “solve
for dx method” to take care of the du . Use the method that you understand.
• Hopefully the new integral is easier to integrate. Plug back in for the original variable.
• For a definite integral, you may either change the limits of integration to the new variable, or
simply put everything back in terms of the original variable and use the original limits of
integration – but do not do both!
Areas of regions
• Decide to set up the integral using x or y as the variable based on whether you get only one
formula for the “top” curve and one formula for the “bottom” curve.
• Remember that everything must be in terms of the chosen variable.
• You must solve any equation for the other variable in terms of this chosen variable. If that
turns out to be impossible, then you must choose a different variable.
Volumes of Revolution
• Sketch the region and decide whether to do it as an x or y problem using the same
reasoning as above. x yields vertical rectangles and y yields horizontal rectangles.
• Decide whether this becomes the washer method or the shell method.
WASHER: dy
dx )radius)inner (-radius)outer (( 22 (rectangle axis of revolution)
SHELL: dy
dx height) radius)(outer (2 (rectangle || axis of revolution)
• Remember that “radius” refers to the distance as measured from the axis of revolution.
• The limits of integration come from the extreme values of the chosen variable.
Volumes by Cross-Section
• Decide on a variable axis so that cross-sections perpendicular to this axis are nice shapes.
Everything will be in terms of this variable. Label the 0 on this axis.
• Determine the area of the cross section. This is often done by writing down the area of the
cross-section shape in terms of an intermediate variable. Then the relation between the
intermediate variable and the chosen variable is obtained by looking at the global shape,
which would be the base of the solid, if there is one, of which may involve “flattening out”
the picture parallel to the variable axis. If the solid has a base as a region in the plane, then
use the equations of the bounding curves to determine this relation. Otherwise, the standard
methods for calculating this relation are: the Pythagorean theorem (if global shape is a
circle), or similar triangles (if the global shape is a triangle).
Some older topics revisited
• Sandwich theorem. For the common final exam, you might be required to write out sandwich
theorem problems fully formally. You might have to find )(xg and )(xh if not already
given, such that )()()( xhxfxg for all relevant x and say that )(lim)(lim xhLxgaxax
and hence you can conclude by the Sandwich Theorem that also Lxfax
)(lim . This also
works for limits as x . In particular, if asked to “show work”, for a Type
bounded
limit, write out the inequality based on the upper and lower bounds of the numerator:
)(
constant boundupper )(
)(
constant boundlower
xkxf
xk where )(xk , and use the
Sandwich Theorem.
• How to make a compound function continuous. The key is to compute the one-sided limits
at the crucical boundary point and set them equal to each other to make the two-sided limit
exist there.
• If given the graph of the derivative 'f and asked questions about f , then:
Questions about increasing/decreasing/max-min can be answered by looking to see where the
graph of 'f is positive, negative, zero – that is, you are pretty much given the first derivative
diagram already.
Questions about concavity can be answered by seeing where 'f is increasing (thus 0'' f ),
where 'f is decreasing (thus 0'' f ).
Additional Practice Problems The previous common final exams are already excellent sources for practice problems.

18. Textbook 2.6 #46, 47; 4.2 #15, 16.
2.6#46. The key is to consider xxxf cos)( . Note that the function is continuous. Now
find an input where the output is positive and an input where the output is negative. Then
use IVT.
2.6#47. You need to apply IVT three times on three nonoverlapping intervals. So find four
inputs such that the outputs alternate positive and negative. And always note that the
function is continuous.
4.2#15. Show the existence of at least one zero by using the IVT: the function is continuous
and now find two inputs so that one output is positive and the other is negative. Show that
there cannot be more than one zero by showing that the derivative is never zero, because if
there were more than one zero, then the derivative must be zero somewhere in between by
the MVT.
4.2#16. Same technique as #15.
