  1. To excel in the Ontario MCV4U (Calculus and Vectors) course, you should be comfortable with the following mathematical concepts:

    1. Functions:
    2. Types of functions (linear, quadratic, polynomial, rational, exponential, logarithmic)
    3. Function notation and evaluation
    4. Domain and range
    5. Transformations of functions (translations, reflections, stretches, and compressions)

    6. Inverses of functions

    7. Trigonometry:

    8. Unit circle and radian measure
    9. Trigonometric functions (sine, cosine, tangent, and their inverses)
    10. Trigonometric identities (Pythagorean identities, angle sum and difference identities)
    11. Solving trigonometric equations

    12. Applications of trigonometry (right triangles, law of sines, law of cosines)

    13. Limits:

    14. Understanding the concept of a limit
    15. Evaluating limits using algebraic techniques
    16. One-sided limits

    17. Limits at infinity

    18. Derivatives:

    19. Definition of the derivative (limit definition)
    20. Techniques for finding derivatives (product rule, quotient rule, chain rule)
    21. Derivatives of common functions (polynomials, trigonometric functions, exponential functions)

    22. Applications of derivatives (tangent lines, rates of change, optimization problems)

    23. Integrals:

    24. Understanding the concept of integration as the reverse process of differentiation
    25. Techniques for finding definite and indefinite integrals
    26. Fundamental Theorem of Calculus

    27. Applications of integrals (area under a curve, accumulation functions)

    28. Vectors:

    29. Basics of vector operations (addition, subtraction, scalar multiplication)
    30. Dot product and cross product
    31. Vector applications in geometry (lines and planes in 2D and 3D)

    32. Parametric equations and vector equations of lines

    33. Analytic Geometry:

    34. Equations of conics (circles, ellipses, parabolas, hyperbolas)

    35. Intersections of curves and lines

    36. Mathematical Reasoning:

    37. Proof techniques and logical reasoning
    38. Problem-solving strategies

    It’s also helpful to be proficient with graphing calculators and software, as they will aid in visualizing functions and their behavior.

    Good luck with your studies! If you have any further questions, feel free to ask!
