...Value:100 Test no. 2 Preview F2013 No calculators or written material allowed. Attempt as many questions as you please. Maximum is 100. Part marks will be awarded for relevant and correct intermediate work. While the focus on this test is Ch.3, you must know material in Ch.1 and Ch.2. It is not sensible to expect to do well with Ch.3 while being unfamiliar with earlier material. It is the nature of mathematics where one topic builds on an earlier one. §3.10 & §3.11 are not examinable. [Note: While it is true that doing well in assignments should help you in this test, you must recognize that the format of an electronic assignment does not enable certain types of questions to be asked. Therefore, you need to prepare for different types of questions in addition to those you encounter in assignments. This is especially true in view of the fact that, for instance, it is difficult in an e-assignment to ask for intermediate work in obtaining a derivative starting with its definition – namely using a limit. In the following I will attempt to give a flavour of how some questions may be worded.] There will be 4 questions of equal weight, drawn from various topics. It is entirely possible that a topic found in the text but not appearing below may appear in your test, i.e. what appears below does not constitute an exhaustive list of examinable topics. 5 possible questions are presented below. lim trig expression involving a&h Q. a) If a and b are constants, evaluate h→0 trig expression involving...

...Goal: Students will use the trigonometric ratios (Sine, Cosine, and Tangent) to measure the real life height of various objects. How: Students will work with one partner, however they both will have to turn in individual projects. Step One Create a clinometer, by following these steps. ▪ Cut out the photocopied protractor. ▪ Glue it to your piece of cardboard. ▪ Cut out the cardboard so that it is the shape of your protractor ▪ Cut a 4-inch piece of string, tape it to the middle of the protractor by your mark. It is important that you tape your string before you tape your straw. ▪ Tape your straw to the top flat end of your protractor. ▪ At the end of the string, tape a couple pennies to it. Your clinometer should look like this: [pic] Step Two Measure the height of the wall using sine, cosine, tangent, and your clinometer. ▪ In order to measure the height of the wall, complete the Clinometer worksheet that is attached to this project sheet. ▪ After you measure the height of the wall, you will measure one more object at school, and one more at home for homework. Step Three Draw a story/cartoon that shows how you used trigonometry to solve the problem that...

...no rejuvenating reprieve of the ever elusive success, would debase to mere writhing of anguish. The frustration was immense: how do you prove that you really know a concept when your test scores fail to attest to your understanding and effort put in? However my redemption did come. As it turns out, I got to my immense surprise and delight, fours on my ap tests, at last I could shove something in everyone's face, it was that long awaited reprieve, something to lift my chin up, and regain faith in myself and in my future, Yeah nigga long enough. This review assignment for algebra 2 trig honors, illustrates the kind of method of learning that I can use in the future to learn. This review assignment is essentially what will be teaching me the subject that we covered. It just like in later in life in different situations expects me to figure out certain concepts that will be used or expected of me to know. This review assignment teaches me to be able learn concepts quickly and effectively. In this artifact I used graphs to illustrate mathematical concepts. Like the slope and direction of the...

...ENCOUNTERING SOCIAL CLASS DIFFERENCES AT WORK: HOW “CLASS WORK” PERPETUATES INEQUALITY Using a microsociological lens, we develop a theoretical framework that explains how social class distinctions are sustained within organizations. In particular, we intro- duce the concept of “class work” and explicate the cognitions and practices that members of different classes engage in when they come in contact with each other in cross-class encounters. We also elucidate how class work perpetuates inequality, as well as the consequences of class work on organizations and those at the lower end of the organizational hierarchy. By examining microlevel interactions and how they become institutionalized within organizations as prevailing rules and practices, we contribute to both institutional theory and the sociology of social class differences. We encourage future research on social class and discuss some of the challenges inher- ent in conducting it. Several contemporary developments—includ- ing the financial crisis of 2008 (Rajan, 2010), the shrinking of the middle class (Leicht & Fitzger- ald, 2007), and the rise of the “new poor” in America (Cohen, 2010)— have reinjected the is- sue of social class differences and inequality (Stiglitz, 2012) into contemporary discourse. Within organization studies, however, social class has received only scant consideration (cf. Castilla & Benard, 2010; Dacin, Munir, & Tracey, 2010; Scully & Blake-Beard, 2006). While two re- cent exceptions...
