The (x, y) co-ordinates of a point in the plane are called its Cartesian co-ordinates. But there is another way to specify the position of a point, and that is to use polar co-ordinates (r, theta). In this unit we explain how to convert from Cartesian co-ordinates to polar co-ordinates, and back again.

Polynomial division is a process used to simplify certain sorts of algebraic fraction. It is very similar to long division of numbers. This booklet describes how the process is carried out.

In order to simplify certain sorts of algebraic fraction we need a process known as polynomial division. This unit describes this process.

Many common functions are polynomial functions. In this unit we describe polynomial functions and look at some of their properties.

A knowledge of powers, or indices as they are often called, is essential for an understanding of most algebraic processes. In this section you will learn about powers and rules for manipulating them through a number of worked examples.

First year science students often lack confidence at the start of their course regarding their mathematical skills. A maths readiness workshop has been designed at Monash University Gippsland campus to give students confidence in their mathematical ability prior to the beginning of semester. It also helps students to identify very early if they should opt in to the various maths support programs offered at the campus. The workshop has been designed in conjunction with first year coordinators to specifically target mathematical content relevant to first year biology and chemistry including rearranging formulae, logarithms and exponentials, and physical quantities and their units. Students self-select into the workshop based on a short presentation during O-week activities. Results of student evaluations and reflections of the facilitators will be presented. Barbie C.

This is a high resolution electronic copy of the Probability % Statistics Facts, Formulae and Information Leaflet. It is designed to be printed on A3 as a double-sided folded leaflet. Print quality is printer dependant. An onscreen version is available in mathcentre.

In this unit we use a system of co-ordinates to find various properties of the straight line between two points. We find the distance between the two points and the mid-point of the line joining the two points.
