Grade 12 Introduction to Calculus

Course Overview

Grade 12 Introduction to Calculus learners will study four topics with specific content outcomes. They will demonstrate an understanding of the concept of the limit, and they will understand that limits can describe function values. Learners will develop a definition of the derivative as a slope of a curve at a point, develop and apply differentiation rules, demonstrate an understanding of implicit differentiation, and apply derivatives to solve problems. They will demonstrate an understanding of integration and of how derivatives and integrals are inversely related.
