Guided by experts from the School of Mathematics and the Maths Learning Centre at the University of Adelaide, this course will continue the study of functions initiated in the course Polynomials, Functions and Graphs by moving into trigonometric functions, exponential functions, and logarithmic functions.
Trigonometric functions are extremely important in applications of mathematics to study situations involving periodic phenomena such as tidal flow. Exponential and logarithmic functions have many uses in applications of mathematics to biology, business and economics, physics and other areas.
Join us as we provide opportunities to develop your skills and confidence in applying mathematical functions.
This course is part of the MathTrackX XSeries Program.

What you'll learn

  • Properties and graphing of trigonometric functions including sine, cosine and tangent
  • Exponential and logarithmic functions
  • Application of trigonometric, exponential and logarithmic functions.

Effective Thinking Through Mathematics (edX)

Learn tools of effective thinking through puzzles and mathematics in this fun and fascinating course. A wondrously romantic belief is that brilliant thinkers magically produce brilliant ideas: Einstein jostles his hair and relativity falls out. We can enjoy these fanciful visions of leaps of genius, but we should not be fooled into believing that they’re reality.

Mathematical understanding of uncertainty (edX) EdX

Mathematical understanding of uncertainty (edX)

This lecture series discusses how the concept of probability can be used to handle, control, and exploit uncertainty in the real-world. It is an undergraduate-level lecture series on probability, but is entirely different from the usual courses on probability theory. The lectures cover the basics of probability theory including the relevant mathematics, but instead of focusing on mathematics, the lectures explain how probability theory can help understand real-world uncertainty using various examples.

Linear Algebra IV: Orthogonality & Symmetric Matrices and the SVD (edX)

This course takes you through roughly five weeks of MATH 1554, Linear Algebra, as taught in the School of Mathematics at The Georgia Institute of Technology. In the first part of this course you will explore methods to compute an approximate solution to an inconsistent system of equations that have no solutions. Our overall approach is to center our algorithms on the concept of distance.
