This collection of solved problems covers elementary and intermediate calculus, and much of advanced calculus. We have aimed at presenting the broadest range of problems that you are likely to encounter—the old chestnuts, all the current standard types, and some not so standard. Each chapter begins with very elementary problems.
It is well organized, covers single variable and multivariable calculus in depth, and is rich with applications. There is also an online Instructor’s Manual and a student Study Guide. The complete textbook (PDF) is also available as a single file.
A set B of points in S is collinear if there is some line L in S such that B ˆ L, and it is noncollinear otherwise. A set A of points in S is coplanar if there is some plane P
Theorem 6.4.6 (Pointwise Characterization of Angle Bisector). Let A, B, and C be three noncollinear points and let P be a point in the interior of ∠BAC. Then P lies on the angle bisector of ∠BAC if and only if d(P, ←→ AB) = d(P, ←→ AC)...
The essential point of calculus is to see this same pattern in “continuous time.” It’s not enough to look at the total or the change every hour or every minute. The distance and speed can be changing at every instant. In that case addition and subtraction are not enough. The central idea of calculus is continuous change.
16 sty 2023 · In both cases, to find the equation of the plane that contains those two lines, simply pick from the two lines a total of three noncollinear points (i.e. one point from one line and two points from the other), then use the technique above, as in Example 1.24, to write the equation.
