The instructions and problems for exam 2 of math 106a: fall 2011. The exam covers topics such as integration, definite integrals, initial value problems, and taylor polynomials. Students are required to evaluate integrals, find definite integrals, solve initial value problems, and determine the convergence of integrals using comparison tests. They are also required to find the third order taylor polynomial of a function and use it to estimate the square root of a number.
