Intermediate Value Theorem

Rolle's Theorem
Front
Let f be continuous on [a,b] and differentiable on (a,b) and if f(a)=f(b) then there is at least one number c on (a,b) such that f'(c)=0 (If the slope of the secant is 0, the derivative must = 0 somewhere in the interval).

Extreme Value Theorem

If f is continuous on the closed interval [a,b] then it must have both a minimum and maximum on [a,b].
