Course CodeSAYT1134University Recognition2 credits of CUHKMedium of Instructionmainly in Cantonese with English course materialsExpected ApplicantsStudents who are promoting to Secondary 5 or 6, and have good knowledge of calculus and geometry. An exposure to physics will be helpful.Introduction
Online ApplicationThis course, combining the knowledge of calculus and geometric intuition, leads students to explore the fruitful variety of curves and surfaces beyond lines, planes, and conics. Students will use calculus up to partial differentiation to describe curves and surfaces, to calculate the tangent vector, normal vector and curvature, tangent plane, geodesic and Gaussian curvature. Other essential geometric theorems, such as Gauss-Bonnet, will be introduced.
