MATH FOR TECHNOLOGY

Catalog description

This course fulfills the skills component of the General Education core and provides students with a solid foundation in those areas of algebra, geometry, and trigonometry which are currently pervasive in technical and industrial technologies. Mathematical topics include Cartesian coordinate system, representations of lines, and functions of one or more independent variables, polynomial, radical, exponential, and logarithmic equations, matrix algebra, and systems of equations, radian and degree measure, right-angle trigonometry, law of sines and cosines, and vectors in applied settings, probability theory, and statistics. This course will emphasize technical applications. Pre-requisite: A grade of 'C' or better in MATH-025 , GNBPT-103 or satisfactory math placement.
