ADVANCED TOPICS IN GEOMETRY AND TRIGONOMETRY

Catalog description

The course material is centered around concepts in geometry and trigonometry including geometric transformations in 2 and 3 dimensions, their representations by matrices, and equations with complex numbers. Metric spaces, minimum distance problems, quadratic, arithmetic, geometric, harmonic means. Area, volume and geometric probability. Multiple representations of the trigonometric functions and their identities. An individual research project is to be completed. PREREQ: UNDERGRADUATE DEGREE IN MATHEMATICS OR CONSENT OF INSTRUCTOR
