In the class of calculus we will complete the following topics:-
Functions
Limits continuity differentiability
Applications Of Derivatives
Integration
Applications of Integration
Differential Calculus
This is the complete course for cbse student to understand the calculus. Student finds difficulty in this section of Maths so no worries anymore I have specially designed the course in a structured way to complete all the possible aspects of calculus in a very easy and understandable way.
Course Structure and Content:
Unit 1: Continuity and Differentiability (15-18 hours)
