In the Introduction to the Derivative video we introduce the notion of the derivative of a function and explain how the derivative captures the instantaneous rate of change of a function. In the ...

There you are in your introductory physics course. The course requirements say that you have to be in Calculus 101 (it's probably not called that) in order to enroll in Physics 101. Why? There are two ...

The Mathematical Gazette is the original journal of the Mathematical Association and it is now over a century old. Its readership is a mixture of school teachers, college and university lecturers, ...

Using a relationship derived from a special case of DeMoivre's Theorem, we can express the sine and cosine functions as infinite series of generalized binomial coefficients. We will derive these ...

In high school, you probably learned that trigonometric functions – like sine, cosine and tangent –can be derived, geometrically, from a circle (hence why trig functions are also known as “circular” ...
