MAC 2311
Analytic Geometry and Calculus 1

Credits: 4

Prerequisites:

strong background in precalculus.

Catalog Description:

Introduction to analytic geometry; limits; continuity; differentiation of algebraic, trigonometric, exponential, and logarithmic functions; applications of the derivative; inverse trigonometric functions; differentials; introduction to integration; and the fundamental theorem of calculus.
(Note: credit will be given for at most one of MAC 2233, MAC 2311 and MAC 3472.) (M) (MR)

Content:

MAC 2311 is a calculus course students in mathematics, the physical sciences, engineering and computer science. It is the first term of a three semster sequence whose sequel is MAC 2312 Calculus 2, and MAC 2313 Calculus 3.

The department also offers MAC 3512 Calculus 2 for AP Students, which combines a fast paced review of Calculus 1 with Calculus 2, and also prepares the student for MAC 2313 Calculus 3.

Detailed Prerequisites:

MAC 2311 assumes you have the essential algebra skills necessary for the course. Students who register for MAC 2311 should satisfy the appropriate prerequisites for the course:
  • a score of 20 or better on the Calculus Readiness Assessment;
  • a score of 540 or better on the SAT IIC;
  • a grade of C or better in MAC 1147; or
  • AP or IB credit for MAC 2311.
If you have AP/IB credit for MAC 2233 and enroll in this course, then you give up that AP/IB credit.

The course begins with a rapid review of topics in algebra and trigonometry, which you should be competent in. If you find the review material new or difficult, you should consider first taking MAC 1147, a four credit course in Precalculus, or both MAC 1140 Precalculus Algebra and MAC 1114 Trigonometry.

Textbook:

Calculus Early Transcendentals by Stewart, 5th edition (note the new edition starting fall 2003)
