Course Objectives
Familiarize the student with the basic concepts of analytic geometry in the plane and space, and prepare him for later courses in advanced calculus and linear algebra.
Course Content
Fundamental principles of Analytic Geometry. Cartesian coordinates in plane and space. Lines in the plane. Review of trigonometry and polar coordinates. Rotation and translation in the plane. Vectors in plane and space. Lines and planes in 3-space. Basics about conics. Basic surfaces in space, cylinders, surface of revolutions, quadric surfaces. Cylindrical and spherical coordinates.
Course Learning Outcomes
Student, who passed the course satisfactorily will be able to:
- work on Cartesian, cylinderical and spherical coordinate systems
- write and identify the equations of lines (in R^2 and R^3 ) and planes
- use basic vector properties and algebra of vectors
- write the equations of conic sections and identify them
- identify the basic surfaces in space, cylinders, surface of revolutions, quadratic surfaces
