Here are the problems we went over and the equations we went over. The homework is to finish test corrections for tuesday, and study for a quiz on identities and the unit circle. http://cevrard3.edublogs.org/2009/11/20/11182009-as/ We went over the homework problems.  Here is a sample: Went over Trig identities: Our homework is on page 143 problems 1-35 odds and review Power Rule, Chain Rule, Product Rule, and Quotient Rule for the quiz on thursday. http://cevrard3.edublogs.org/2009/11/09/940/ Went over homework Quotient Rule: identities: http://cevrard3.edublogs.org/2009/11/05/11-5-class-notes-sk/ [gallery] P. 134 - Product Rule # 1-21 odd as many as needed to be comfortable.
