Practical linear algebra: a geometry toolbox

By: Contributor(s): Publication details: 2014 CRC Press Boca RatonDescription: xvi, 498ISBN:
  • 9781466579569
Subject(s): DDC classification:
  • 512.5 F2P7
Summary: To help students better visualize and understand the material, the authors introduce the fundamental concepts of linear algebra first in a two-dimensional setting and then revisit these concepts and others in a three-dimensional setting. They also discuss higher dimensions in various real-life applications. Triangles, polygons, conics, and curves are introduced as central applications of linear algebra. Instead of using the standard theorem-proof approach, the text presents many examples and instructional illustrations to help students develop a robust, intuitive understanding of the underlying concepts.
