AP Calculus AB — Flashcards Learning Hub
Welcome to your self-study home. Use these unit flashcards to learn concepts from scratch, fix gaps you couldn’t understand in class, and build exam-level confidence — one unit at a time.
Step 1: Choose a unit
Step 2: Filter by topic inside the unit
Step 3: Flip → understand → repeat
Goal: 5-level mastery
UNIT 1
Limits
Limits & Continuity
One-sided limits, limit laws, indeterminate forms, continuity, IVT, and key AP traps.
You’ll master: “What a limit really means” + “How continuity tests work”
Start Unit 1 →UNIT 2
Derivatives
Differentiation: Definition & Rules
Limit definition, derivative rules, core patterns, and error-proof habits.
You’ll master: Derivative as rate of change + rules you can apply fast
Start Unit 2 →UNIT 3
Applications
Composite, Implicit & Contextual
Chain rule, implicit differentiation, related rates foundations, and interpretation in context.
You’ll master: “How derivatives connect to real situations”
Start Unit 3 →UNIT 4
Extrema
Applications of Differentiation
Optimization, motion (v/a), MVT, concavity, curve sketching, and classic AP traps.
You’ll master: Turning graphs/words into correct calculus decisions
Start Unit 4 →UNIT 5
DE
Differential Equations
Separable DEs, slope fields, logistic growth, initial conditions, and solution behavior.
You’ll master: “Model → solve → interpret” using differential equations
Start Unit 5 →UNIT 6
Integrals
Applications of Integration
Accumulation, area between curves, volumes, work, average value, motion, and units.
You’ll master: Accumulation thinking + geometry-to-integral translation
Start Unit 6 →UNIT 7
Review
Integration Techniques & Review
u-sub mastery, integral properties, AB-level trig integrals, and quality control traps.
You’ll master: Cleaner setup, fewer mistakes, and faster scoring-level solutions
Start Unit 7 →
