Evaluating Limits Teacher Resources

Limit the amount one forgets about limits. A mid-unit review lesson has individuals complete a worksheet of problems on limits. They go over the meaning of limits, evaluate limits algebraically, use graphs and tables to find limits, and...

Test the limits of one's knowledge on continuity. The last of 18 installments in Unit 1 - Limits and Continuity is an end-of-unit review learning exercise. Individuals identify and classify discontinuities, investigate continuity at a...

Discontinuities in the graph? No worries. Pupils investigate the limit of a function given graphically using an interactive. The graph has removable and jump discontinuities.

Limits are made easy through graphs and tables. An easy-to-use interactive lets users change a function on a coordinate plane. They relate graphs and tables to the limit at a specific value.

Chase a periodic moving limit. Learners graphically determine the limit of the tangent function at different input values. Using sliders, pupils find out whether the tangent function approaches the same value from the left and the right....

Rational functions become less mysterious when you know about limits. Individuals use an interactive to move a rational function on a coordinate plane and to investigate function values for certain x-values. They see how the limit...

After an introductory activity to demonstrate the theory of a limit, additional activities approach a limit from graphical, numerical, and algebraic methods. The activity looks at the multiple ways of understanding and evaluating a...

Understanding how calculus formulas were derived connects learners to the idea that the study of mathematics is continuous and cumulative. Learners will also develop a deeper appreciation for the derivative's application in...

For this limit worksheet, students evaluate limits on given equations. This two-page worksheet contains 14 multi-step problems. Answers are provided on page three of the worksheet.

In this limit worksheet, students solve for two limits of constant functions, and two other limits.  The solutions are not provided.

Young scholars discuss the following topics of Calculus: The Tangent Line Problem, The Area Problem, and Exercises. They find limits graphically and numerically. Students write a mathematical autobiography, they write their earliest...

In this college level calculus worksheet, students evaluate the given integrals and compute the given limits or show that the limit does not exist.  The three page worksheet contains ten problems.  Answers are not provided. 

In this college level calculus instructional activity, students evaluate limit and indicate any limit rules they apply.  If the limit does not exist they explain why. The two page instructional activity contains seven problems....

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...

Finding limits for the vast majority of points for a given function is as simple as substituting the number that x approaches into the function.
