13 Mathematics with Calculus 1
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: Satish Kumar.
This course is designed for those students who intend to study Mathematics, Engineering, Science and similar technological careers at tertiary level. Calculus develops practical skills in differential and integral calculus. It is intended to illustrate various applications of calculus to technical problems.
The concept of complex numbers is introduced and the theory of differentiation and integration will be enhanced and the application of these processes to real world situations will be included. Pupils can expect to explore trigonometric graphs by modelling situations through internal assessment.
