This course consists of the following three topics which emphasizes problem solving at all stages of the learning process.
- Algebra
- Systems of linear inequalities (including polygon of constraints and optimal solutions); graphs of real-variable functions (absolute value, step, square root, rational, exponential, logathermic and trigonometric); sums, difference, product, quotient and composition of functions; inverse functions; solving equations and transforming algebraic expressions involving absolute values, square roots, exponents, logatherithms, trigonometry, and systems of linear and quadratic inequalities; equations of loci and straight lines, circles, ellipses and hyperbolas; principal elements and a conic section (centre, radius, directrix, vertices, foci, minor axes, symptotes.
- Geometry
- Theorems of circles and right triangles, vector operations (addition, multiplication by a scalar, dot product); simple proofs using vectors.
- Statistics
- Measures of dispersion (range, interquartile range, mean deviation, standard deviation, Z-score); estimate and interpret liner regression line correlation coefficient.
