The first page of this resource discusses the "short cuts" to determining the end behavior of rational functions, while at the same time referencing the limitations. Graphs of functions are given to visually support those rules. Page two is a brief five problem practice worksheet and page three is the answer key for the worksheet. At the moment I am considering this a "mini resource" and offering if free of charge. I would appreciate feedback from anyone who uses it on how to improve this re

This document is packed with 12 pages of Pre-Calculus information that will be helpful for the Calculus student to have at their fingertips. The references include: basic rules of algebra (laws of exponents, special products, special factoring), common values of trigonometric expressions, 21 common parent functions with domain and range provided, common formulas from geometry and analytic geometry, and 25 of the most common trigonometric identities.

This 9 pages of materials here contain a single page of resources on using the first derivative to determine intervals of increasing and decreasing and locating local of a function. The next 4 pages contain various activities to help students explore those concepts. These pages are followed by the answer keys for the activities.
