Description

A first course in the methods and applications of engineering mathematics. Topics include calculus, linear algebra, and modelling techniques. This Course is designed for engineering students who have done well in NCEA Mathematics with calculus.

Contact person for this course: Phillipa Gourdie

A pass in EMTH118 allows entry into EMTH119 and also prepares students for ENGR102.

Topics:
Linear equations and matrices; functions, limits and continuity; vector geometry; differentiation; applications of differentiation; integration; and applications of integration, including an introduction to first order differential equations.

Learning Outcomes

After successful completion of this course, you will be able to:
o Describe lines and planes using vector equations.
o Use vector geometry to solve angle, distance, and intersection problems.
o Understand, solve, and interpret the solutions to systems of linear equations.
o Use matrix algebra and understand the connection between matrices and linear systems.
o Solve problems involving inequalities and absolute value.
o Understand complex numbers and their algebra.
o Express complex numbers in rectangular and polar form.
o Find powers and roots of complex numbers.
o Solve problems involving exponential, log, trig and inverse trig functions.
o Understand the concept of a function and its inverse.
o Evaluate limits of functions and solve continuity problems.
o Find derivatives and use them in engineering and modelling applications.
o Find integrals and use them in engineering and modelling applications.
