In this activity, students use the Derive software to solve trigonometric equations, expressions with exponentials, and log equations. They also determine the equation of tangent and normal of a function; evaluate integrals, find area...

In this activity, students will investigate the derivatives of sine, cosine, natural log, and natural exponential functions by examining the symmetric difference quotient at many points. They develop the idea of the derivative as a...

In this Derive activity, students relate the behavior of the graph of an exponential function to the signs of its first two derivatives. They realize that if the signs of the first two derivatives over a given interval are known, a...

The Chain Rule is presented with a detailed example. It is followed by a demonstration of how the Chain Rule is applied to power functions.

The derivatives of logarithmic and exponential functions are used in problems dealing with earthquake measurement and air resistance. The problems allow students to see how these derivatives are applied with practice.

This site, from the University of California, provides several problems from beginning differential calculus, as well as beginning integral calculus. The problems can be accessed by clicking on the link, and the information provided is...
