PREREQUISITE: MAT 203, Placement, or Instructor approval.
MAT 205 is a continuation of MAT 203. This course extends the methods of differential and integral calculus to functions of several variables. Topics studied include: vectors in two and three dimensions, dot and cross products and their applications; equations of lines and planes, quadratic surfaces; polar, cylindrical and spherical coordinates; partial derivatives, directional derivatives and gradients; optimization problems; multiple integrals and their applications; paths in 3-space and their tangent vectors and normal planes. 4 credits.
