Objective Develop analytical tools to draw a connection between high school geometry, linear algebra and multivariable analysis
Content Plane Geometry
-Coordinates in the plane (Cartesian and polar),
-Vectors (arithmetic operations, dot product, determinant, orthogonality, linear dependence),
-Complex numbers (arithmetic and geometry, polar representation),
-Representations of lines in the plane (two points, one point and a direction vector, one point and a normal vector, Cartesian equation, parametric equation),
-Analysis of the intersection of lines using systems of equations (Gaussian elimination, matrices, Cramer’s rule)

Spatial Geometry (3D Geometry)
-Coordinates in space (Cartesian, cylindrical, spherical),
-Vectors (arithmetic operations, dot product, determinant, cross product, orthogonality, linear dependence),
-Representations of lines and planes in space,
-Methods for computing intersections, distances, and angles between lines and planes in space

Conic Sections
-Types of conics and their various representations (geometric, single-focus definition, double-focus definition, second-degree equations),
-Classification of second-degree equations in two variables
Course Learning Outcomes 1. Identify and define the various planar coordinate systems, apply them appropriately according to context, and perform transformations between these systems,
2. Master algebraic operations on vectors, including arithmetic operations, the dot product, the determinant, and the cross product,
3. Understand the geometric interpretations of vector operations and apply them effectively in relevant situations,
4. Represent lines and planes in multiple forms (vector, parametric, Cartesian, etc.) and convert between these representations,
5. Analyze the conditions of intersection between lines and planes using systems of linear equations, employing various solution methods (Gaussian elimination, matrix methods, Cramer’s rule),
6. Represent conic sections in different forms (geometric, algebraic, single-focus or double-focus definitions) and transition between these representations,
7. Classify second-degree equations in two variables based on their algebraic and geometric properties.
