    Study Notes

    Spatial Reasoning

    • The ability to visualize and understand the relationships between objects in space
    • Involves recognizing shapes, patterns, and structures
    • Develops skills in:
      • Mental rotation: imagining objects from different perspectives
      • Spatial visualization: picturing objects in 2D and 3D
      • Spatial awareness: understanding object positions and movements

    Coordinate Geometry

    • A system for locating points in space using numerical coordinates
    • Uses:
      • Cartesian coordinates (x, y, z) for 3D space
      • Polar coordinates (r, θ) for 2D space
    • Applications:
      • Graphing functions and relationships
      • Calculating distances and midpoints
      • Modeling real-world phenomena (e.g., projectile motion)

    Graph Theory

    • The study of graphs, which are collections of nodes and edges
    • Key concepts:
      • Vertices (nodes) and edges
      • Degree of a vertex: number of edges connected to it
      • Graph representations: adjacency matrix, adjacency list
    • Applications:
      • Network analysis: social networks, transportation systems
      • Optimization problems: finding shortest paths, minimum spanning trees
      • Data structures: representing complex relationships

    Math Modeling

    • The process of creating mathematical representations of real-world phenomena
    • Involves:
      • Identifying key variables and relationships
      • Developing equations or algorithms to describe the system
      • Analyzing and interpreting results
    • Applications:
      • Population dynamics: modeling population growth and decline
      • Physics: modeling motion, forces, and energy
      • Economics: modeling economic systems and markets

    Geometric Transformations

    • A way of changing geometric shapes and figures
    • Types of transformations:
      • Translation: moving a shape to a new position
      • Rotation: rotating a shape around a fixed point
      • Reflection: flipping a shape over a line or plane
      • Scaling: resizing a shape
    • Applications:
      • Computer graphics: creating animations and visual effects
      • Architecture: designing buildings and structures
      • Art: creating symmetrical and tessellated patterns
