We didn't learn line integrals, that's in the next class in the series apparently, this is the class I took:
I had to take a week and a half off for a funeral because we had to do it both Western styled and Asian styled, and in that week, they covered parametric and 2D vectors, at least I made it back in time for 3D vectors and I could get something out of that. Basically with acceleration though, in the book we basically only had that the tangential component was the derivative of speed and the normal component was the square root of the sum of the magnitude of acceleration and the tangential component.
I left the question blank, and it was worth 20 points. I spent most of my time doing a Taylor series approximation, which I'm still uncertain how to do (Approximate sine of 1 degrees using a = pi/3).
I emailed the Math advising people to see if I could move on (Pass 162H with a C or written permission of the Honors Math Dept Chair) or at least, make up the course. I can take 153.01, which is basically the last two thirds of the class, to forgive the grade I got in 162, but I don't think that applies to me since I'm not technically in college yet and they don't recommended it if you get a D or above.
On an unrelated note, do universities usually factor in grades from transfer credit?
Quote:162.01H. L'Hospital's rule, improper integrals, sequences and series, convergence tests, power series, Taylor's formula, conic sections, polar coordinates and their applications, parametric equations of curves, vector algebra in the plane and three-dimensional space, derivatives of vector functions, curvature and the unit normal vector, tangential and normal components of acceleration, analytic geometry of three-dimensional space.
