MTHM 155TECHNICAL MATHEMATICS I

Catalog

This course is designed to strengthen students’ mathematical abilities that are needed in other disciplines. Emphasis will be on the application of skills to technical problems. Topics discussed in this course include measurement (units, rates, conversions, dimensional analysis, and scientific and engineering notation), algebra (equations and formulas, modeling, functions and graphs, complex numbers, and systems of equations), geometry (2 and 3 dimensional figures, angles, and the Pythagorean Theorem), and basic trigonometry (right-angle trigonometry, Law of Sines, Law of Cosines, inverse trigonometric functions, sine and cosine graphs and vectors).
