Math 51, Spring 2003
Information and Resources:
- Java Applets -- These
were written by Steve Levandosky (the author of our Linear Algebra text) to
help students visualize linear transformations, multivariable functions, parametric
curves and surfaces, and other things.
- Notes on Sets -- These notes were written by a former
Math 51 TA; I suggest all students make sure that they are familiar with all
of the ideas presented in this document. (Note that some of the material covered
there uses the idea of a subspace; you might want to wait until we have covered
that in class before reading those sections.)
- Discussion of the Linearity of the Change of Basis
function (don't look at this until we get to the "Systems of Coordinates"
section in the book.)
- Sample Proof Questions for the Second
Exam
- Notes about Multivariable Derivatives -- These
notes summarize the lectures in which I deviated from the book. Make sure
to read these notes carefully!
Announcements:
