This unit provides an introduction to the concepts of linear algebra: vectors in 2, 3 and n-dimensional space, analytic geometry, matrices and matrix arithmetic, solution of systems of linear equations, eigenvalues and eigenvectors. These concepts are illustrated by their application.
Students not enrolled in K94, Y13, Y28, Y44, Y45, Y46, Y47, Y49, Y50, Y51, Y54, Y55, Y60, Y64, Y65, Y66, Y74 and Y75 must have achieved a scaled score > 49.99 in MAT or MAT3C/3D or must have passed MAT1137 or equivalent.
Unit was previously coded MAT4163
On completion of this unit students should be able to:
Lectures, workshops, laboratory
