Basic Limits

In this limit worksheet, learners find the interval values of given functions. They identify constants, and plot graphs. This three-page worksheet contains approximately 20 problems.

Continue a study of calculus by using a slideshow to introduce the concept of continuity. After defining the term, the presentation provides examples of functions that are discontinuous and introduces different types...

Sal begins his explanation of limits with a few basic examples and takes a more intuitive point of view before looking at a formal mathematical definition in later videos. He starts by introducing the notation for limits and describes...

The resource investigates the limits of basic functions. The tutorial consists of practice problems and examples with solutions.

Calculus students find the limit of piecewise functions at a value. They find the limit of piecewise functions as x approaches a given value. They find the limit of linear, quadratic, exponential, and trigonometric piecewise functions.

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...

Push an engaging resource to the limit. The interactive allows learners to find a limit on quadratic functions graphically. Using sliders, pupils set the x-value for the limit and to move values from the left and right toward the limit.

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....

Does the point continually move along the graph? Pupils drag a line across two functions to determine whether they are continuous or not. They answer questions about the properties of continuous and discontinuous functions. Using their...
