Title: I'm taking calculus
Post by: Selkie on May 29, 2013, 03:12:25 PM
At my local college, as my last class before I can officially get my diploma (did the formal graduation a week ago).

And basically, I remember NOTHING from HS, and I only took stats like 2 years ago in college, so I was up the river without a paddle this week.

But doing derivatives now, I am reminded how great a feeling it is when you do a long math problem, and find out you did it right.

THE POWER OF GOD

take it and see how you will never need to integrate by parts again.

but I had to integrate by parts in Differential Equations and maybe Physics too

>Implying anyone who took calc several years ago would be planning on taking differential equations now.

We are getting in to the derivative and applications of it.

I know, I am a coward. I am just so bad at the algebra (compound fractions, etc). And trig is totally beyond me.

memorize the unit circle

(http://www.regentsprep.org/Regents/math/algtrig/ATT5/600px-Unit_circle_angles_svg.jpg)

(cos, sin)

trig is nothing if you can just picture this thing every time a problem comes up
