Course Outcomes:

On completion of this course, students are able to:

  1. Apply the knowledge of calculus to solve problems related to polar curves and its applications in determining the bentness of a curve.
  2. Learn the notion of partial differentiation to calculate rates of change of multivariate functions and solve problems related to composite functions and Jacobians.
  3. Apply the concept of change of order of integration and variables to evaluate multiple integrals and their usage in computing the area and volumes.
  4. Solve first order linear/nonlinear differential equation analytically using standard methods
  5. Make use of matrix theory for solving system of linear equations and compute eigenvalues and eigenvectors required for matrix diagonalization process.
