Final Exam: Saturday, June 2, 8-11 am, 007 Kemeny

The final is comprehensive, but you can expect roughly half of it to be on material covered since the last exam (Sections 14.1-14.4, 15.1-15.7), and half to be on the material from the first two exams. The style of the final will be similar to that of the two midterms.

**No calculators are allowed on the exams. You are also not allowed any notecard or formula sheet.**

The following material will NOT be covered:

Partial fractions with irreducible quadratic factors in the denominator (8.4)
Estimates of sums using the integral test (12.3)
Taylor's Inequality (12.10)
Proving that a function is equal to its Taylor series (12.10)
Direction angles and direction cosines (13.3)
Curvature, normal and binormal vectors (14.3)
Tangential and normal components of acceleration, Kepler's laws (14.4)
