MICRO-CREDENTIAL IN CALCULUS I

About this Module

What you will learn

There are five (5) subtopics to be discussed in Limits. 1. Introduction to Limits 2. One-sided and Two-Sided Limits 3. Infinite Limits 4. Computing Limits 5. Limits at infinity and End Behavior

What skills you will gain

What you will gain Limits are the fundamental concept in Calculus. They help students learn the behavior of functions as they approach a certain value of x. In learning the concept of limits, students will explore that the limit can be determined using two methods: first by looking at the graph, and second by learning the properties of limits. There are 5 subtopics in limit: 1. Introduction to limit 2. One-sided and two-sided limit 3. Infinite limit 4. Limit involving radical 5. Limit at infinity and end behavior Learning objectives: After completing this chapter, learners are able to 1. Define the limit of a function at a point from a graph 2. Determine the limit from the graph of a function 3. Understand the concept and the relationship of one-sided and two-sided limit. 4. Evaluate limit algebraically from direct substitution, factorization and simplification and multiplication with radicals. 5. Determine the limit of a functions as x approaches positive or negative infinity.

 Syllabus

This topic focus on the intuitive approach. The intuitive approach help to grasp the fundamental concept of learning the behavior of a function as x approach to a particular value we called as 'a'. Using this approach, students are required to graph the function and observed the values as it get closer to a from the left and the right. There 4 examples given in this subtopic to assist students in understanding the concept of intuitive approach.

The topic on one-sided limit focuses on the limit approaching from one side (direction), either from the left or right. The notation is the superscript '+' or '-' indicates the from the right or left respectively. At the end of this topic, students will understand that the limit exist only if the one-sided limits approaching to the same value.

This topic explains certain functions, particularly for rational functions where they have points at which they are not defined but approach closely to a vertical line called as vertical asymptotes. It is said that the function is increases without bound or decreases without bound.

This topic focuses of algebraic approach of finding limits. The common techniques used are direct substitution, factoring and simplification and conjugate pairs.

This topic explains the limit of a function as x approaches to positive or negative infinity. Contradicts to infinite limits, this topic concerned with the behavior of the function as x increases or decreases without bound.
