MATH 1060 SYLLABUS - Continuing Education at the University of ...

MATH 1060 SYLLABUS – TRIGONOMETRY – SUMMER 2008COURSE: Math 1060-070 is a 2 hour math class offered through AOCE. You can expect tospend at least two hours on homework per one hour of class time. Math 1060-070 meetsMonday and Wednesday evenings from 6 – 8 pm at the Sandy Campus. Exams will be givenfollowing class.PREREQUISITE: Completed Math 1010 or equivalent with a C or better, or have a currentMath ACT score of 23 or higher. I highly recommend that a student complete Math 1050 or istaking Math 1050 concurrently.FACULTY: Sarah Jean Hoggan, BS (mathematics), MEd (Phi Kappa Phi)CONTACT ME: e-mail: SarahJean.Hoggan@utah.eduCOURSE DESCRIPTION: This course covers trigonometric functions, their inverses,equations and identities with applications. It also gives an introduction to vectors.COURSE OBJECTIVES: Students will pass the chapter tests as well as the final, therebydemonstrating a basic understanding of the trigonometric functions, their graphs, inverses,identities, vectors, solving equations, applications, complex numbers and polar graphs.CONTENT OVERVIEW: This course will cover the trigonometric functions in a unit circleand a right triangle, their graphs and inverses along with applications. Identities, solvingequations, as well as special formulas will be included. The Law of Sines and Cosines, anintroduction to vectors, and the trigonometric form of a complex number will be taught. Thecourse concludes with polar equations and their graphs.TEACHING and LEARNING METHODS: Lecture and daily homeworkHOMEWORK: Homework will not be collected. It is highly recommended that you work theproblems assigned at the end of each section. If you are having trouble with a particular type ofproblem, more practice may prove helpful by reworking the problems.

CDS will work with you and the instructor to make arrangements foraccommodations.”FACULTY RESPONSIBILITES: “All students are expected to maintain professionalbehavior in the classroom setting, according to the Student Code, spelled out in the StudentHandbook. Students have specific rights in the classroom as detailed in Article III of the Code.The Code also specifies proscribed conduct (Article XI) that involves cheating on tests,plagiarism, and/or collusion, as well as fraud, theft, etc. Students should read the Code carefullyand know they are responsible for the content. According to Faculty Rules and Regulations, it isthe faculty responsibility to enforce responsible classroom behaviors, and I will do so, beginningwith verbal warnings and progressing to dismissal from class and a failing grade. Students havethe right to appeal such action to the Student Behavior Committee.”As a reminder: Dress - The educational process is facilitated by professional behavior on the partof all; therefore, students are encouraged to dress appropriately for class. TURN CELLPHONES OFF BEFORE COMING CLASS – NOT ON VIBRATE, BUT OFF! DO NOTgo outside in the middle of class to make or answer a phone call. Do not talk while I amlecturing or while other students are asking questions. DO NOT come to class late or leaveearly. It is not only inconsiderate, but also quite disruptive to other students.2

MATH 1060 – HOMEWORK and TEST SCHEDULE – SUMMER 2008(YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY CHANGES TO THIS SCHEDULE)Realistically, you probably will not have time to complete all of the recommended problems. Do as manyas you can (Every Other Odd may be helpful), being sure to try at least some of each different type,since practice really does make perfect in this subject.
