The Geometric Interpretation of Partial Derivatives

This textbook takes the learner from the basic definition of slope through derivatives, integrals, and vector multivariable calculus. Each section is composed primarily of examples, with theoretical introductions and explanations in...

In this math worksheet, students describe the difference between a partial and an ordinary differential equation. They give examples of 1st, 2nd, and 3rd order differential equations. Students apply this information to predator/prey...

In this derivative worksheet, students identify second derivatives and find the directional derivative of a function. They also list the extremes and saddle points of a function. This one-page worksheet contains seven multi-step problems.

In this math learning exercise, students practice solving the problems that focus upon the concept of partial derivatives. The problems are in the form of a quiz.

In this interval worksheet, pupils write a geometric series for the derivatives of a function. Students determine the values of x and where it may converge. This two-page worksheet contains five multi-step problems.

This heady calculus text covers the subjects of differential and integral calculus with rigorous detail, culminating in a chapter of physics and engineering applications. A particular emphasis on classic proof meshes with modern graphs,...

For this partial derivative worksheet, students calculate the derivative of given problems and find the equation of the tangent plane to an equation. This two-page worksheet contains five problems.

In this partial derivatives worksheet, students find formulas for the vector partial derivative of a function. They prove that an elliptic cone can be represented parametrically. This two-page worksheet contains explanations, examples,...

The dot product of two matrices is a number on the number line, its transformation. The resource presents the dot product as a linear transformation from two dimensions to one dimension. The video uses the numerical and graphical...

Hands-on investigation of Riemann sums becomes possible without intensive arithmetic gymnastics with this interactive lesson plan. Learners manipulate online graphing tools to develop and test theories about right, left, and midpoint...
