LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEET

BASIC CALCULUS
Quarter 3 Week 1
Name: ____________________________________ Score: _______________
Grade & Section: _________________________ Date: ________________

Learning Competencies
1. illustrate the limit of a function using table of values and graph of the function;
(STEM_BC11LC-IIIa-1)
2. distinguish between lim 𝑓(𝑥) and 𝑓(𝑐) (STEM_BC11LC-IIIa-2)
𝑥→𝑐
3. illustrate the limit laws (STEM_BC11LC-IIIa-3)
4. apply the limit laws in evaluating the limit of algebraic functions (polynomial,
rational & radical) (STEM_BC11LC-IIIa-4)

Activity Proper
I. Express what you have learned in the lesson by completing the sentences
below. Use a separate paper for your answers.

1. The limit of a function is ___________________________________________.

2. One sided limit of a function is _____________________________________.
3. Is the limit of a function similar as evaluating a function? Explain briefly.
4. How can you solve the limit of a function? Explain briefly based on your own
understanding.

II. Read and answer the given question below. Use a separate paper for your
answers.
𝑥 + 3, 𝑥 > 3
Suppose you are given a piecewise function 𝑓(𝑥) = { , evaluate the
𝑥 2 − 3, 𝑥 ≤ 3
limit of this function as 𝑥 approaches 3. Use the steps shown to you to get the
final answer.

III. Read the situation and answer the question briefly.

A. Situation: Have you experienced walking on a street and noticed an image of
a small billboard from afar? Because of the distance, the message on that
billboard is not readable. What action would you take to be able to see clearly
and understand the message on that billboard?

IV. Answer the following questions.

1. In what way did the Limit laws help you in solving for the limit of a function?
2. Is direct substitution of 𝑥 values always applicable in solving the limit of a
function? Briefly justify your answer.
