Take a second look. Form B of the AP® Calculus BC free-response questions allow pupils and teachers to see another set of items. The six questions expand the set of items from the 2011 free-response questions. Form B items include a...

Let them eat cake. The free-response questions from an AP® Calculus BC exam cover several topics that include finding the area under a curve within the context of creating a birthday cake. Calculus concepts include finding rates of...

Be integral to the learners in the classroom. Pupils use integrals, differentiation, and limits to solve the free-response questions from an AP® Calculus BC exam. Items cover topics such as area under a curve, particle motion, average...

There are shaded areas, particles, polar equations, oh my! Teachers use the materials to see how their pupils compare to the AP® Calculus BC exam expectations. Scholars use the released items to practice on several BC topics and become...

Investigate vectors in standard positions and use the CellSheet application on the TI calculator to find the sum of two vectors. Convert from polar to rectangular coordinates and vice versa, and show graphs of the vectors.

In this polar coordinates worksheet, students graph polar coordinates and determine the values of a given series. This one-page worksheet contains 14 multi-step problems.

This lesson is written from the perspective of a student teacher. A step by step lesson in which the class works on the trigonometric form of complex numbers. They convert between trigonometric and complex forms. They will also practice...

In this math worksheet, students investigate different types of functions and coordinate systems. They review that when integrating a function over a region in the plane using polar coordinates, a “magical” factor of r appears in the...

Contains an animation that will show you how the graphs of a number of polar equations are graphed. (Page may take some time to load completely.)

The resource examines parametric equations and polar coordinates. Topics investigated are parametric curves, area with parametric equations, arc length with polar coordinates, and surface area with polar coordinates. Class notes,...

Given a complex number of the form a+bi, find its angle. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.
