MATH172

This course is a continuation of MATH-171, Calculus I. Topics include applications of the definite integral, such as area, volume, arc length, and average value, techniques of integration with emphasis on substitution and integration by parts, approximate integration and error formulas, infinite sequences and series, power series, and Taylor series. Problems are approached from a variety of perspectives, including graphical, numerical, verbal, and algebraic. Computer software will be used extensively in class to gain a greater understanding of concepts as well as to consider non-routine problems.(Prerequisite: A grade of "C" or higher in MATH-171)
