Goals The aim of this course is to ensure that students grasp the concept of vectors in the plane and space, operations on vectors, and the fundamental structures of analytical geometry. Within the scope of the course, topics such as equations of lines and planes, geometric relationships, distance problems, and projections are covered to enhance students' analytical thinking and problem-solving skills.
Course Content Vectors in the plane and space, operations on vectors, scalar and vector multiplication, the concept of linear independence and basis, equations of lines, the relative positions of two lines, distance calculations, plane equations, the relative positions of a line and a plane, parallelism and distance problems, pencil of planes, projection, symmetry and reflection, and general problem-solving applications.
