New: November 2009 - 5. Riemann Sums with MadMath and 6. Limits - Continuous functions, ε, δ
This cool problem can be explored in 8-10th grade (see Learn and Use GeoGebra) and then solved mathematically in calculus! Problem setting: A man with a boat at point S at sea wants to get to point Q inland. Point S is distance d1 from the closest point P on the shore, point Q is distance d2 from the closest point T on the shore and point P and T are at a distance of d. Question: If the man rows with a speed of vr and walks with a speed of vw at what point R should he beach the boat in order to get from point S to point Q in the least possible time? |

5. Riemann Sums - Own the Mathematics with MadMath
She says to herself - “More i’s than a fly. I can just have my calculator do this. But her teacher is MadMath who wants her to understand what is happening and tells her to make up a GeoGebra worksheet to show and do the calculations. She knows MadMath can change the function, change the interval and change the number of subintervals so she must be prepared.

6. Limits - Continuous functions, ε, δ He says to himself - “It's all greek to me. Who can tell what this means?"
