Apuntes de Trigonometría y Geometría Analítica

This book presents conventions, mathematical concepts, definitions and applications central to the geometric modeling of solids, shells and wires (engineering jargon) embedded in 3D space. Currently, software is available for geometric modeling of technical or natural scenarios. However, the models built frequently fail in supporting the subsequent engineering computing and simulations. Only after repeated iterations and re-design, the models permit engineering / science simulations. This book endows the reader with the basic mathematical concepts needed to ensure that the geometric models...

Pedro Nunes played a major part in the discovery of the world by Portuguese mariners. In this book, his mathematical and scientific achievements are described, together with evidence on his life and friends arising from a collection of his Greek and Latin poems, and from religious notes he composed during his later years. An English version of his long-lost Portuguese algebra is included, as well as poems and letters by his friends translated into English for the first time. These discoveries came from a manuscript recently found in the municipal library of Evora, the perfectly preserved...

Este libro sintetiza, de múltiples maneras, el esfuerzo de largos años de un grupo de investigación que ha entendido a la matemática educativa como disciplina científica con un fuerte compromiso social. Esta obra es fruto del talentoy de la entrega de su autora.═NDICE RESUMIDO: Problematizando el saber matemático escolar. Análisis del discurso trigonométrico escolar. El conocimiento trigonométrico en un escenario histórico. Una construcción social del conocimiento trigonométrico. Elementos para el rediseño del discurso trigonométrico escolar.Gisela Montes Espinosa es doctora...

En este texto se encuentran combinados, con rigos y sencillez excepcionales, los fundamentos de los métodos propios del álgebra lineal para la resolución de sistemas de ecuaciones, los cálculos de vectores y vectores propios, con las técnicas numéricas más adecuadas. También debe resaltarse el desarrollo completo de los algoritmos correspondientes, así como su programación en BASIC, para los numerosos métodos de resolución presentados.
