Differential Calculus (Theory)

 

 

 

 

 

 

CO1: Compare the consequences of mean value theorems for differentiable functions and be able to compute the expression for the derivative of a curve and the pedal equation for cartesian and polar curves.

CO2: Compute the convergence of infinite non-negative series and alternative series using various convergence tests.

CO3: Evaluate the expression for the derivative of a composite function using the chain rule of differentiation. Analyze the extremas of a function of two or more variables and classify them as minima, maxima, or saddles.

CO4: Determine the radius, center, and chord of curvature, envelopes and asymptotes for polar and cartesian curves.

CO5: Compute the critical points and be able to trace cartesian and polar curves.

CO6: Contribute effectively in course-specific interaction.

 

Approach in teaching:

Interactive Lectures, Power Point Presentations, Informative videos

 

Learning activities for the students:

Self learning assignments, Effective questions, Solving tasks

 

 

 

Quiz, Individual and group projects,
