BASIC MATHEMATICS

Course Description

This course is designed for students of several faculties such as pharmacy, architecture, applied sciences and communication. The objective of the course is to introduce the students to fundamental principles about basic concepts of mathematics. It gives an introduction to the real number system followed with inequalities, solution of inequalities and its applications, which related to students' departments. Rectangular coordinate systems, Phytagorean Theorem, finding distance between two points, slope and Mid-Point on XY plane are also covered in this course. Functions such as type of functions, domain and range considerations, and graphical representation of the functions are important topics which are also discussed in this course.
