Objective

Being able to compute with matrices, performing elementary transactions, and calculating determinants, solving systems of linear algebraic equations by Gauss elimination method. Getting acquainted with the general properties of geometric vectors, without using coordinates. Knowing all about the dot, cross, and scalar triple products of geometric vectors, understanding their role in spherical trigonometry. Being able to apply such products when solving metric and positional problems in 3D analytic geometry. Understanding the basic ideas of the calculus of one- and two-functions including geometric interpretations of some concepts. Mastering differentiation, being able to sketch the graph of a function.

Knowledge

After passing the course students will have necessary skills for performing operations with vectors defined either generally or by their coordinates. Except this application of vectors in the spherical trigonometry will be deeply explained. The next outpiuts are: application of vector calculus in metrix and positional problems in analytical geometry, operations with matrices and solving systems of linear algebraic equations.
Bringing off basic differential calculus will permit successfully analyse problems of behavior of analytical curves.
