AB Calculus 2018 Summer Work
Attached you will find a variety of review work based on the prerequisites needed for the AB Calculus
curriculum. The problems assigned should be the minimum you do to be successful in your next course.
It is expected that you understand and can do all the attached. If you don’t understand any topic I advise
you to go on line to Khan Academy for help. I am also including some extension work for those of you
who would like to get a preview of the first chapter in the book.
Recommended Work: 1. Complete the Algebra Review
2. Complete the Trig Review (A-F)/ Trig Formula Sheet
Extension Work: 1. Introduction to Calculus: Limits, continuity, and derivatives.
(The topics on these sheets align to section 12.1-12.3 in your Pre-Cal Book)
