Yr2 Series Flashcards
When doing compound functions,
use the FG, but remember to first manipulate the expression in exactly that form first.
Since tan repeats every 180, tan 60 means that it would be periodic every 3…
add up the groups of 3 to get a result, then state that in k groups the result would be k*(sum of the 3 terms)
If there is no series in that form in the FG…
use the default one.
When looking for the nth non-zero term in a Maclaurin Series…
use the last term on the sequence in the FG
If a question say prove it can still be a…
Methods of Differences
If the bottom part of a sigma sum is r=n…
remember to do the sum to n subtracted by r=n-1.
Remember that series is putting in the numbers and then adding them up to get the answer.
REMEMBER TO CHECK WHAT NUMBER IS ON THE BOTTOM OF THE SIGMA!!!
REMEMBER TO CHECK WHAT NUMBER IS ON THE BOTTOM OF THE SIGMA!!!
You don’t have to do methods of differences on every single term e.g.
Σ (r-3) + 1/(r+1) - 1/(r+2)
