Engineering is an interdisciplinary field that relies heavily on both mathematics and science. While mathematicians create theories and scientists prove them, engineers must apply this knowledge to real-world problems. If you aspire to become an exceptional engineer, you must have a strong foundation in math and science. This course serves as a starting point to help you build this foundation.
The course covers various topics such as calculator functions, mathematical operations, averages, fractions, decimals, signed numbers, significant digits, percentages, exponents, scientific notation, and radicals. You will learn how to perform basic operations including addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division for whole numbers, signed numbers, fractions, exponents, and radicals. Additionally, you will be introduced to key mathematical terms such as multiplicand, minuend, subtrahend, and quotient.
To help reinforce your learning, the course includes numerous exercises and worked solutions. Quiz questions are also provided after each section to help you assess your understanding of the material. For those who prefer to work offline, downloadable PDFs are available in the course resources section.
This course is the first in a series of math courses that will cover various topics such as algebra, trigonometry, geometry, differentiation, integration, and statistics. If you're eager to learn more about math, saVRee can help!
We hope you enjoy the course and find it helpful in developing your math and science skills.
