MATH 114 - Industrial Math

3 Credit Hours

Beginning with concepts as basic as the difference between numbers and numerals, this course reviews mathematics principles and operations through trigonometry. The emphasis is on understanding mathematical principles rather than on rote memorization of techniques. Students will be introduced to the three kinds of calculator logic systems, how to identify which kind of logic any calculator uses, and how to enter problems to ensure that the answer is correct. This course also teaches direct measurements and calculated measurements (e.g., area, torque, speed, and flow rate). The course describes the basic kinds of metric measurement, the use of prefixes (kilo, centi, milli, etc.), and how and when to convert between metric and English measurement.
