True of False exercises: Some students find T or F problems very challenging, because these problems require a deeper understanding of the concepts compared with computational problems. Here are some exercises from (Briggs & Cochran, Calculus: Early Transcendentals, Pearson,   2011, ISBN: 9780321570567)
