Announcements (Updated 6/6)
The Final Exam will be a "No-Calculator" Exam. Key identities will be provided if needed (e.g. sin(x+y) = sin x cos y + cos x sin y), but you should be familiar with the basic properties of trigonometric functions (e.g. sec x = 1 / cos x, cos(-x) = cos x, etc.).
The Final Exam will be held Monday 6/10 during Periods 2 & 3 (9:55 AM -11:40 PM) in Room 632.
Solutions for Test 5 are posted below.
Please bring all your old Tests with you to class on Mon 6/3, as well as any other questions or problems you may have.

Do the Price Quiz as Practice/Review. Ignore Problem 1 - the triangle is missing. Problems 2(b) and 9(c) require a calculator to compute the angle, but the rest of the quiz should be done without a calculator.
Do the Sarris Test as Practice/Review. For Problems 1-3, assume First Quadrant. This is a "no calculators allowed" test.
Your Test 3 will be "no calculators allowed", and include problems similar to these, as well as graphing problems similar to HW 7.3A and HW 7.3B.

Express your answers in both "calculator-ready closed-form" (as done in class) and correct to 4 decimal places (by using a calculator). You will be required to do one or the other (or maybe both) on Test 2. It is recommended that you use the natural logarithm "ln x" (instead of log base 10) whenever the choice of base is not obvious. In any case, do NOT use "log x" without an explicit base in your written work.
