MATHEMATICS

Mathematics sA1-IIa: Solid Geometry: Second Term. 11:30; M. L. 15.
Credit, 1 session-hour.

Mr. Luck.

This course covers the usual subject matter of Solid Geometry. Attention is given
to the logical development of the subject the proof of the leading propositions, their relationship
to each other and to analogous theorems of plane geometry, and to the solution
of original exercises.

Text-book: Hart and Feldman: Solid Geometry.

University of Virginia students who have college credit for College
Algebra (Math. sA1-IIIa) taken before 1935-36 session, may register for
this course. University of Virginia students who have college credit for
only Trigonometry must take Mathematics sA2-II and sA2-III described
below.

Mathematics sA1-IIIa: Advanced Algebra: First Term. 10:30; M.
L. 15. Credit, 1 session-hour.

Mr. Aylor.

This course embraces the topics usually covered in college algebra for freshmen—quadratics,
the binomial formula, complex numbers, determinants, the theory of equations, etc.

Text-book: Hart: Brief College Algebra.

University of Virginia students who have college credit for Solid
Geometry, Math. sA1-IIa, taken before 1935-36 session, may register for this
course. University of Virginia students who have college credit for only
Trigonometry must take Mathematics sA2-II and sA2-III described below.

University of Virginia students in the College who have no college credit
for Mathematics must register for Mathematics sA2-I, sA2-II and sA2-III.

Mathematics sA2-III: Analytical Geometry and College Algebra:
Second Term. 10:30; M. L. 15. Credit, 1 session-hour.

Mr. Luck.

Equivalent to the third-term of Mathematics A2 in the regular session.

Mathematics sA4-I: College Algebra: First Term. 10:30; M. L. 15.
Credit, 1 session-hour toward Bachelor of Science in Commerce degree.

Mr. Aylor.

This course includes the following topics: graphs, quadratics, progressions, mathematical
induction, binomial theorem, logarithms, permutations and combinations, theory
of probability, convergent and divergent series.

Mathematics sA4-II: Mathematics of Finance: First Term. 11:30; M.
L. 15. 1 session-hour credit toward the Bachelor of Science in Commerce
degree.

Mr. Wells.

This course is devoted to a detailed study of simple interest, compound interest,
discount, and annuities. The theory is illuminated by the solution of numerous problems
arising in ordinary business procedure.

Equivalent to the second term of Mathematics A4 of the regular session and may be
taken concurrently with sA4-I.

Textbook: Hulvey: Mathematics of Finance.

Mathematics sA4-III: Mathematics of Finance: Second Term. 9:30;
M. L. 15. 1 session-hour credit toward the Bachelor of Science in Commerce
degree. Mathematics sA4-I and II prerequisite.

Mr. Wells.

This course is continued from the point reached in sA4-II. Applications of the fundamental
topics studied in sA4-II are made to practical problems of sinking funds, amortization
of interest-bearing debts, valuation of bonds, depreciation of assets, life insurance
premiums, and related topics.

Textbook: Hulvey: Mathematics of Finance.

Mathematics sB2-I: Calculus: First nineteen days of the quarter.
Lectures 8:30 to 10:30; T. H. 23. Credit, 1 session-hour.

Mr. Oglesby.
