No credit if already completed a higher numbered math, except MATH 110. A second course in mathematical modeling whose main themes are functions, represented by table, graph and rule, and problem solving. No credit if already completed MATH 120 or any higher numbered math course. A brief review of sets, relations, functions, and inverses. Topics include trigonometry of teh right triange, solutions of triangles, the trigonometric functions, the circular functions, identities, solving trigonometric equations, graphs, inverse trigonometric functions, polar coordinates and vectors.
Emphasis is on an alalytic approach.
The 3 credit MATH 105, required for all students enrolled in engineering and technology programs, includes a 1 hour per week laboratory including introduction to scalars and vectors, geometric and algebraic methods of vector addition in a plane and IBM PC laboratory problems to enhance the lecture part of the course. An introduction to contemporary mathematics for students of science, social science and the liberal arts. Applications are considered throughout. A scientific calculator with a fraction key is used. An introduction to statistical theory and its applications.
