Geometry and Vector Algebra (3 cr)

Objectives (course unit)

Student is able to:
- understand basic terminology of geometry
- calculate areas and volumes of two- and three-dimensional objects
- apply vectors to technical problems
- perform calculations with complex numbers

Content (course unit)

Terminology of Geometry, Solving a Scalene Triangle, Areas and Volumes, Center of Mass of a Plane Region, Similarity, Scale, Vectors and Applications, Complex Numbers.

Prerequisites (course unit)

Orientation for engineering mathematics or similar skills.

Assessment criteria, satisfactory (1-2) (course unit)

Student understands the basic concepts of geometry and vector calculations and is able to solve simple applications that are similar to the problems solved during the course. Student is familiar to different forms of complex numbers and is able to perform calculations with them. Justification of solutions and the usage of mathematical concepts may still be somewhat vague. Student takes care of his/her own studies and can cope with exercises with some help from the group.

Assessment criteria, good (3-4) (course unit)

In addition, student is able to solve basic geometrical problems and knows how to apply vectors to technical problems. Student can also explain the methods of her/his solutions. Mathematical notations and concepts are mainly used correctly. Student is able to solve the given exercises independently and also helps other students in the group.

Assessment criteria, excellent (5) (course unit)

In addition, student has an overall understanding of course topics. He/she can solve more demanding engineering problems and has the ability to present and justify the chosen methods of solution. Mathematical notations and concepts are used precisely. Student is motivated and committed to help the group to manage the course.

Evaluation methods and criteria

Geometria ja vektorilaskenta, RÄSTIKURSSI kesä 2020 (5N00EG72-3040)
Opintojakso suoritetaan ennakkotehtävillä, osallistumalla opetukseen (osallistuttava 100 %) ja suorittamalla koe hyväksytysti. Poissaolo kokeesta vastaa hylättyä suoritusta.

Assessment scale

0-5

Content scheduling

Kertaavalla opintojaksolla keskitytään opintojakson keskeisten tehtävien ratkaisemiseen.

Further information

Opiskelija, jolla on Geometria ja vektorilaskennan kurssista nolla voi osallistua tälle kertaavalle opintojaksolle. Kurssille on mahdollista osallistua siis vain, jos on jo aiemmin käynyt kyseisen kurssin, mutta saanut siitä arvosanan 0. Tämä rästikurssi on eräänlainen tukiopetuksella höystetty ylimääräinen uusintakerta, joten rästikurssin koetta ei voi uusia.
Kurssille hyväsymisen ehtona on hyväksytysti suoritetut ennakkotehtävät.

Assessment criteria - satisfactory (1-2) (Not in use, Look at the Assessment criteria above)

Kurssilla tavoitellaan arvosanaa 1.
Arvosanan 2 saamiseksi opiskelijan tulee työskennellä itsenäisesti. Jos kurssikoe menee erityisen hyvin, niin kurssista on mahdollista saada arvosana 2.
