The University of Virginia record :: March 1, 1919 :: University of Virginia Library

A complete course in plane and spherical trigonometry is pursued with
constant drill in the solution of problems, and exercises in the use of logarithms.
(Fall.)

101. College Algebra.

The work begins with the progressions and proceeds with the study of
the binomial formula, of the convergence and divergence of series, and of
the binomial, exponential and logarithmic series. The study of inequalities
and determinants prepares for the theory of equations, with which the
course is closed. (Winter.)

102. Analytical Geometry.

In this elementary course the study of Cartesian and polar coördinates
is followed by numerous exercises on the graphical representation of equations.
Special attention is given to the straight line and the representation
of the general equation of the first degree in two variables. The course is
intended to prepare for the fuller study of the analytical geometry of the
conic sections. (Spring.)

103. Conic Sections.

This course in analytical geometry reviews the topics of Course 102 and
completes the study of the conic in its particular and general forms. A
brief examination of curves referred to polar coördinates is then followed
by the special study of a number of classical curves. (Fall.)

104. Differential Calculus.

The differential calculus is expounded and illustrated by exercises in the
expansion of functions, evaluation of indeterminate forms and problems of
maximum and minimum for functions of one variable. The method is then

applied to the geometry of curves, tangencies, curvature, envelopes and
curve tracing. (Winter.)

105. Integral Calculus.

The integral calculus is taken up; the integral is defined, and exercises
in elementary integration prepare for the application to numerous problems
in lengths, areas and volumes. When time permits, a brief introduction
to ordinary differential equations will be given. (Spring.)
