MAT 224 Linear Algebra #

A first course in vectors, matrices, vector spaces, and linear transformations that serves not only as an introduction to more abstract mathematics courses at the junior-senior level, but also have many useful applications outside mathematics. The course is not intended to replace a more advanced linear algebra course at the junior-senior level. Topics include: vectors; vector spaces; operations on matrices; matrices; inverse of a matrix; solution of systems of linear equations; rank of a matrix; vector spaces and subspaces; linear dependence and independence; basis and dimension; linear transformations; sums, composites, inverses of linear transformations; range and kernel of a linear transformation; student-written proofs; eigenvalues and eigenvectors; orthogonality and inner product spaces; and quadratic forms.
