MAT 155 - Elementary Mathematical Analysis


▲ = Fulfills a General Education Requirement
This course is an accelerated one semester Pre-Calculus course designed for students with sufficient mathematics background but in need of a review of material prior to taking Calculus. This course covers the advanced mathematics needed for Physics, Engineering, and the sciences. Topics include functions and their properties, graphs of quadratic functions, polynomial functions and their graphs, rational functions and their graphs, inverse functions, exponential and logarithmic functions with applications, right triangles and their applications, linear and angular velocity, graphing trigonometric functions, inverse trigonometric functions, Sum, Difference, Double-angle, and Half-angle formulas, the Law of Sines, the Law of Cosines, solving trigonometric equations, polar coordinates, polar equations, polar graphs, DeMoivre’s Theorem, Vectors, and Conics.
Prerequisite(s): ENG 097 , if required by DSP, and satisfactory score on the College Level Mathematics Test and Division approval 
5 lecture hours per week
