MAT 225: Calculus with Analytic Geometry II

3 credits | Prerequisites: MAT 104

Course rationale

This course is a continuation of the study of single variable calculus which was started in MAT 104. Calculus is an indispensable subject for mathematicians, engineers, and scientists.

Course content

Applications of differentiation, related rates, concavity, curve sketching, techniques of integration, applications of integration, volume of solids, arc length and surface area of revolution, improper integrals, polar coordinates, area and arc length in polar coordinates, vectors in plane and space, algebra of vectors, applications in plane and space geometry, conic sections, standard forms, reduction of second degree equations to standard forms, pairs of straight lines, identification of conics, equations of conics in polar coordinates, infinite series, convergence of series, power series, Maclaurin and Taylor series.
