Course Short This course provides students an overview of the basic principle of integral,
Description: methodology of finding area between curves, length of a plane curve, surface
area and volume by revolving plane curves using integration.
Course 1. To classify different types of proper and improper integrals and find the
Objectives: appropriate techniques for finding values of integrals, and to analyse the area
of bounded and unbounded regions.
2. To analyse the basic geometric properties of conic sections parabolas,
ellipses, and hyperbolas.
3. To demonstrate student’ understanding of the relationship between the
exponential and hyperbolic functions, their graphs and the application of
hyperbolic functions in the real-life problems.
4. To develop the ability to apply the basic principles of integration to find the
length of a curve, surface area of revolution, area between two curves and
the volume of solids generated by revolution of curves.
Course Learning Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:
Outcomes:
(CO-1) Classify the type of a given integral and apply the appropriate technique
for finding the value of the integral.
(CO-2) Formulate and evaluate integrals to find the length of curves, the area
between curves, the area of unbounded regions, and the area of
surfaces of revolution.
(CO-3) Analyze the structure of solids generated by revolution of a region
bounded by curves to evaluate volume.
(CO-4) Illustrate parametric curves and conic sections, and analyze their various
properties.
(CO-5) Develop the ability to apply polar coordinates to find the area of regions
bounded by polar curves.
Mapping of Course Outcomes
Important dates:
Midterm è TBA in class
Course Final à TBA by the register office
(a) Submit the assignments on recommended date. No late submission will be accepted. Make a
photocopy of your assignment before submission.
(b) There is no scope to retake a quiz. In case of Mid-terms, exceptional cases* (unfortunate
physical inability, accidents, serious illness) may be considered conditionally (with a penalty of
20% reduced marks) with proper justification. Dater of final exam will be strictly followed.
(c) Three consecutive absents need an official clarification.
(d) Student having attendance less than 60% of total classes will not be allowed to sit for Final
Exam.
(e) If you are a probation/retake student, I would like to have you in all classes.
1. Electronic devices e.g. cell phone, laptop, notepad, iPad, iPod, mp3, etc are strictly prohibited in
the class [on Campus].
2. It is imperative that the students maintain absolute discipline in class. Students are also expected
to arrive on time for the class, as frequent late attendance will not be accepted.
Academic Integrity Policy: Department of Mathematics and Physics does not tolerate academic dishonesty
by its students. At minimum, students must not be involved in cheating, copyright infringement, submitting
the same work in multiple courses, significant collaboration with other individuals outside of sanctioned
group activities, and fabrications.
Students are advised that violations of the Student Integrity Code will be treated seriously, with special
attention given to repeated offences.
Please see the NSU Student Handbook, Sections: “Disciplinary Actions” and “Procedures and Guidelines”.
