MATH 220 Test 2 Spring 2010: Derivatives and Limits - Prof. Robert F. Murphy, Exams of Calculus

The spring 2010 math 220 test 2 for sections al1 and bl1. The test covers various topics related to derivatives and limits, including finding derivatives of functions such as csc x, cot x, sinโˆ’1 x, and tanโˆ’1 x, as well as finding derivatives using given functions and equations. The test also includes questions on finding slopes of tangent lines, increasing rates of a circular plate's area, and identifying intervals where a function's graph is decreasing.
