MATHEMATICS I: DIFFERENTIAL CALCULUS & COORDINATE GEOMETRY
Enrollment is Closed
This course will be divided into two major parts. As the name suggests, first part of the course will subject to differential calculus, while the latter part will focus on coordinate geometry. The individual parts and their components are briefly discussed in the following:
Differential Calculus: Limits, Continuity and differentiability. Differentiation. Taylor's Maclaurine's & Euler's theorem. Indeterminate forms. Partial differentiation. Tangent and normal. Subtangent and subnormal. Maximum and minimum, radius of curvature & their applications.
Co-ordinate Geometry: Transformation of coordinates & rotation of axis. Pair of straight lines. General equation of second degree. System of circles. Conics section. Tangent and normal, asymptotes & their applications
