MATHEMATICS.
100. Trigonometry. [Luck and Instructors.]
8-9, T. Th. S.
A complete course in plane trigonometry is pursued with constant
drill in the solution of problems, and exercises in the use of logarithms.
(Fall.)
106. Analytical Geometry and College Algebra. [Luck and Instructors.]
8-9, T. Th. S.
In this course Cartesian and polar coördinates are presented and applied
to the study of the straight line and the circle. The related college
algebra topics of determinants, the function notion with especial reference
to the linear function, the graphical representation of equations and of
functions are also considered. (Winter.)
107. Analytical Geometry and College Algebra. [Luck and Instructors.]
8-9, T. Th. S.
This course is a continuation of course 106. The conic is studied in
its particular and general forms. Especial attention is given to the solution
of numerous loci problems by the use of Cartesian and polar coördinates.
The study of related college algebra topics is continued. The
quadratic function of one and two variables, the theory of the quadratic
equation in particular and of equations in general are some of the topics
considered. (Spring.)
108-109-110. Calculus. [Echols.]
11-12, M. W. F. or T. Th. S.
A first course in the differential and integral calculus. This includes
a study of series and partial fractions. The principal emphasis is upon
the applications of the subject to geometry, elementary kinematics and
mechanical problems. (Fall, Winter, Spring.)
