Develops the fundamental concepts of mean, median and standard deviation. Studies the concept of probability, with some fundamental techniques for calculating probabilities. Introduces probability distributions, emphasizing the binomial, normal, and Chi-squared distributions. Applies these ideas to hypothesis testing, linear regression and analysis of variance. Focus is on problem solving techniques for the technical fields.
Emphasis is on trigonometric methods.
Develops the geometric preliminaries, traingle definitions of the trigonometric functions, evaluation tehcniques for these functions, applications to measurements, solving triangles, elementary graphing techniques, trigonometric identities and solving equations. Intended primarily for students pursuing further study in mathematics, engineeing, or the sciences. The application of basic mathematical operations to specific vocational programs which includes common fractions, decimal fractions, percentages, ratio and proportion, practical algebra, and computations involving rectangles and triangles. Emphasizes the use of mathematics in welding. An introductory course in linear algebra with an emphasis on developing computational and modeling tools with applications in physics, mathematics, engineering, economics, and business.
