Preface

Here are a set of problems for my Calculus I notes. These problems do not have any solutions
available on this site. These are intended mostly for instructors who might want a set of problems
to assign for turning in. I try to put up both practice problems (with solutions available) and these
problems at the same time so that both will be available to anyone who wishes to use them.

Introduction
Here are a set of problems for which no solutions are available. The main intent of these
problems is to have a set of problems available for any instructors who are looking for some extra
problems.

Note that some sections will have more problems than others and some will have more or less of
a variety of problems. Most sections should have a range of difficulty levels in the problems
although this will vary from section to section.

Here is a list of topics in this chapter that have problems written for them.

Determine the exact value of each of the following without using a calculator.

Note that the point of these problems is not really to learn how to find the value of trig functions
but instead to get you comfortable with the unit circle since that is a very important skill that will
be needed in solving trig equations.

the observers eye to an object above (below) the horizontal line. Two people are on the roof of
buildings separated by at 25 foot wide road. Person A is 100 feet above Person B and drops a
rock off the roof of their building and it falls at a rate of 3 ft/sec.
(a) At what rate is the angle of elevation changing as Person B watches the rock fall when the
rock is 25 feet above Person B?
(b) At what rate is the angle of depression changing as Person B watches the rock fall when the
rock is 65 feet below Person B?

24. The angle of elevation is the angle formed by a horizontal line and a line joining the
observers eye to an object above the horizontal line. A person is standing 15 meters away from a
building and watching an outside elevator move down the face of the building. When the angle
of elevation is 1 radians it is changing at a rate of 0.15 radians/sec. At this point in time what is
the speed of the elevator?

25. The angle of elevation is the angle formed by a horizontal line and a line joining the
observers eye to an object above the horizontal line. A person is 24 feet away from a building
and watching an outside elevator move up the face of the building. The elevator is moving up at
a rate of 4 ft/sec and the person is moving towards the building at a rate of 0.75 ft/sec. Assuming
that the elevator started moving from the ground at the same time that the person started walking
is the angle of elevation increasing or decreasing after 10 seconds?

As noted in the text for this section the purpose of this section is only to remind you of certain
types of applications that were discussed in the previous chapter. As such there arent any
problems written for this section. Instead here is a list of links (note that these will only be active
links in the web version and not the pdf version) to problems from the relevant sections from the
previous chapter.

Each of the following sections has a selection of increasing/decreasing problems towards the
bottom of the problem set.

given interval using 6 n = and using,
(a) the right end points of the subintervals for the height of the rectangles,
(b) the left end points of the subintervals for the height of the rectangles and,
(c) the midpoints of the subintervals for the height of the rectangles.
