Final Exam - Review

Related Pages: Course Home Page | Syllabus | Schedule and Homework

As stated in class, you are allowed to bring to the exam one 8.5x11 inch page, written on both sides for the final exam. You can write whatever you want on this page: eg. definitions, formulas, examples, etc. Calculators will be allowed for the exam.

Dr. Hurdal's Office Hours during Exams

This course covered Chapters 12-20 from the course text book:

  • Chapter 12 - Functions of Several Variables
  • Chapter 13 - Vectors
  • Chapter 14 - Partial Derivatives
  • Chapter 15 - Optimization
  • Chapter 16 - Multiple Integration
  • Chapter 17 - Parametric Equations and Vector Fields
  • Chapter 18 - Line Integrals
  • Chapter 19 - Flux Integrals
  • Chapter 20 - Divergence and Stokes' Theorems

    The final exam will cover material from the entire course. However, 30-40% of the exam will cover material from Chapters 18-20.

    There will be approxiamately 10 questions, plus one bonus question. The bonus question will have a value equal to 10% of the exam.

    I suggest you focus on the following types of problems as they test multiple things covered during the course:

  • Line Integrals
    - tests line integrals, vector dot product, parametric equations
  • Divergence Theorem
    - tests divergence, flux integrals, multiple integration
  • Stokes' Theorem
    - tests curl, vector cross product, line integrals, multiple integration
  • Green's Theorem
    - tests line integrals, multiple integration
  • Vector Fields - be able to draw and interpret
    - tests understanding and interpretation of vector fields and related concepts including curl, divergence, flux, work (line integrals)
  • Coordinate Transformations
    - tests polar, cylindrical, spherical coordinates, transformation of coordinates, applications of integration
  • Optimization Problems
    - tests understanding and applications of partial derivatives
  • Partial Derivatives including Gradients and Directional Derivatives
    - tests applications and understanding of partial derivatives, chain rule
  • Surfaces including Contour Maps
    - tests understanding of 3D functions, equations of the plane

    Make sure you can do all the assigned review problems and practice on the previous tests and quizzes. If you can do those problems correctly while using your time efficiently, then you will do well on the final exam.

    Here are the reviews from the previous tests:

  • Test 1 Review
  • Test 2 Review
  • Test 3 Review
  • Review for final Chapters

    Here are pdf files of the tests which you can download and print. You will need a pdf viewer, such an Adobe Acrobat Reader to view these files.

  • Test 1 (pdf file, 30K)
  • Test 2 (pdf file, 43K)
  • Test 3 (pdf file, 40K)

    Good luck on the exam! I enjoyed having all of you in my class.
