Students apply vector calculus in solving problems in physics. Students become knowledgeable of matrices and determinants, vector spaces, and linear operators. MATH 1113 Students study mathematical reasoning and learn different methods for solving problems. Problems dealing with combinations, algorithms and graphs are explored. Students explore the concepts and methods of the calculus of functions of several variables and vector analysis.
Students investigate the properties of integers and develop proofs of some of their properties.
Functions defined on the integers are explored. Calculators and computers are used in problem solving. Students generalize arithmetic procedures used for integers to solve abstract problems. Students enhance their knowledge of mathematics and its applications. Topics covered include number systems, probability, statistics, measurement and geometry.
