This resource contains 20 practice problems (20 functions given) for classifying critical points of a function. Functions included are polynomials, rational, including radicals (square and higher-index roots), exponential, logarithmic, trigonometric and inverse trigonometric. To solve each problem students will need to
- find critical numbers
- determine the intervals on which the function increases and decreases
- apply the First Derivative Test to classify the critical points as relative maximums, relative minimums or neither (locate relative extrema of a function).
The product can be used as in class practice, an independent practice, partner activity, for group work, as enrichment.
Detailed and typed answer keys are provided.
