Vectors, Geometry and Linear Algebra

This module is split up into 10 topics, each covering different consepts. They are as follows

Sets and Notation

Sets are a very important tool in mathematics which hasn't been looked at until now. This topic will introduce to you the idea of a set. You will learn about and how to apply different operations to these sets, as well as learning about their defining properties. You will also look at new notation used with sets that probably hasn't been used before.

Mathematical Induction

Chances are you haven't come across this idea yet. Mathematical Induction (or proof by induction) is a very powerful method of proof used in mathematics, which relies on the idea of proving a base case, and then every other cases follows as a logical step from the base.
