Math 232

Here are the solutions to today's quiz. Also, here is the animation I showed you today illustrating Taylor polynomials converging to the sine function.

I fixed the setting on Brightspace that was hiding your grades. They should all be visible now. Sorry for the confusion, and have a great break.

I've posted your midterm scores on Brightspace. You can interpret your score as follows:

• 39–53: A- to A
• 30–39: B- to B+
• 22–29: C to C+

Anything lower than that is a D or an F. And here's a reminder of how I do the grading for this class.

Overall, the class did quite well on this exam. If that's not the case for you and you'd like to discuss your situation with me, send me an email or come to my office hours at the end of the break. The drop deadline is April 13th.

Here are the solutions to the midterm, version A and version B.

I had announced that the Section 10.3 homework would be due next week, but I messed up the date for it so it was still set to be due today. I've reopened it now until next week.

I'll post solutions to the exam tomorrow and if all goes well, I'll get it graded tomorrow too. Good luck and have a good break.

Our second midterm is next week, on Monday, March 30th. So we'll have no quiz this week.

The midterm will cover through Section 10.3. All the midterm policies will be the same as for the first midterm: You can use any calculator, but you can't use a phone or computer. You can also have a sheet of notes, which must be in your own handwriting on normal-sized 8.5 by 11 inch paper. You can write on both sides of the sheet. I'll include this table of trigonometric integrals on the exam. The exam will go from 10:10 to 11:50 with no breaks. In particular, I'd like everyone to remain in the room the entire time.

The best resource for doing well is the old exams. Midterm 2 and Practice Midterm 2 from these exams also go through Section 10.3, so all of the problems on those exams are suitable for you. The best way to study for an exam is to practice exam-like problems in an exam-like setting. It's best not to look at the solutions until you're done solving (or trying to solve) all the problems on your own.

Just a note that on Monday, March 23rd, office hours will be from 1:15 to 2:15 instead of the usual 12-1:30.
