Ace Linear Algebra in 10 Hours (The Complete Course)
Study of lines, planes, and vectors, and the areas and spaces they create
Description
HOW THIS COURSE WORK:
This course, Ace Linear Algebra in 10 Hours (The Complete Course), is intended to introduce the student to the study of lines, planes, and vectors, and the areas and spaces they create. The course includes videos, notes from whiteboard during lectures, and practice problems (with solutions!). I also show every single step in examples and proofs. The course is organized into the following topics:
Vectors
Basic Matrix Algebra
Linear Systems
Subspaces, Linear Spans, and Solution Spaces
Linear Dependence, Basis, and Dimension
Projections and Cross Products
Lines and Planes
Intersections and Distances
Square Matrices
Determinants
CONTENT YOU WILL GET INSIDE EACH SECTION:
Videos: I start each topic by introducing and explaining the concept. I share all my solving-problem techniques using examples. I show a variety of math issue you may encounter in class and make sure you can solve any problem by yourself.
Notes: In each section, you will find my notes as downloadable resource that I wrote during lectures. So you can review the notes even when you don't have internet access (but I encourage you to take your own notes while taking the course!).
Assignments: After you watch me doing some examples, now it's your turn to solve the problems! Be honest and do the practice problems before you check the solutions! If you pass, great! If not, you can review the videos and notes again before moving on to the next section.
THINGS THAT ARE INCLUDED IN THE COURSE:
An instructor who truly cares about your success
Lifetime access to Ace Linear Algebra in 10 Hours (The Complete Course)
HIGHLIGHTS:
#1: Downloadable lectures so you can watch the videos whenever and wherever you are.
#2: Downloadable lecture notes so you can review the lectures without having a device to watch/listen.
#3: Ten problem sets at the end of each section (with solutions!) for you to do more practice.
#4: Step-by-step guide to help you solve problems.
