Course alignment and coverage

Current catalogue and public Fall 2026 outline checked 25 October 2026. These original exercises cover selected stated topics, not the section’s assignments, examination or weekly order.

Across this collection: 156 distinct original families and 468 parameter instances. Courses share topic banks; translations and shared mappings are not extra questions.

Supported learning objectives

  • Linear systems

    Solve small two-variable systems, count a free variable and identify a singular parameter.

  • Matrix calculations

    Compute selected sum/product entries, 2×2 determinants and an inverse entry.

  • Euclidean vectors

    Calculate dot products, lengths, distances and a projection coefficient in two or three dimensions.

  • Small eigenvalue calculations

    Find selected 2×2 eigenvalues, an eigenvector coordinate and a power trace from a supplied diagonalization.

What is not covered

Small real systems, matrix entries/determinants, Euclidean vector calculations and selected 2×2 eigenvalue examples only. No abstract vector-space proofs, complete basis/rank theory, general diagonalization, complex arithmetic, cross products or full line/plane geometry.

An original worked example

Solve x+y=5 and x-y=-1. Enter x only.

Worked solution

Answer: 2

  1. 2x=4.
  2. Thus x=2 and y=3; both original equations hold.
