In this first introduction to Calculus, students will be introduced to the tools of differential calculus, the branch of calculus that is motivated by the problem of measuring how quantities change. Students will use these tools to solve other problems, including simplifying functions with straight lines, describing how different types of change are related, and computing maximum and minimum quantities. This course will focus on developing a deep understanding of why the tools of calculus make sense and how to apply them to the social, biological, and physical sciences. It will also emphasize translating between algebraic, graphical, numerical and verbal descriptions of each concept studied. This course will be useful for students interested in learning applied calculus in relation to future studies in economics, life science, and physical and mathematical science programs. The following concepts will be studied: Limits, asymptotes, continuity, derivatives, linear approximation of functions, the notion of a differential equation (DE) and a solution of a DE, slope fields, and Euler's method.

This is a student-contributed aggregate, not an official University of Toronto record. It is also not a measure of how hard the course is — a course average moves with who enrols in it, not only with the material.

Per-term figures stay hidden until each term clears five contributors. 14 observations can support one honest number; they cannot support 14.

Counts, not a library. Pyko does not host or distribute course files, and this page is not an offer to supply one — the archive is what lets these pages describe how a course is assessed, which matters most where no syllabus has been verified.

What this opens up

61 courses list MAT135H1 as a prerequisite

Showing 24 of the 44 that have a page here. The other 17 have no page yet. Listing a course here means it names MAT135H1 among its prerequisites — often as one of several ways to satisfy the same requirement, so this is what MAT135H1 makes available, not what it alone guarantees.
