MTH 075 Applied Algebra for Technicians
This course includes the following: linear, square, and cubic units, dimensional analysis in metric and U.S. customary measures, problem solving, angle measure, properties of pairs of angles formed by system of parallel, perpendicular, and transversal lines; perimeter and area of polygons and circles; surface area and volume of solid figures such as prisms and pyramids; similarity, ratio, and proportion, right triangle trigonometry. Oblique triangle trigonometry is an optional topic. Some algebra topics will be applied. The course will emphasize clear communication of mathematical results. Application problems are realistic with some data to be collected, analyzed, and discussed in group setting with results submitted in written form.
