VANE R RUTHERFORD Mathematics ll IVAN S GLIDEWELI.. Mathematics IVIATHEIVIATICS The courses offered under this depaitment alt com lhm courses in Geometix hate one great aim in xleu prlsed of Alge bra llane Geometix and Solid Geometrv 'lhe n imelx that of teaching the student to reason both lnduc Algebra courses are divided into grades 9B 9A and 11B tlvelx and deductiwelx bv oft repeated applications of syn while the Plane Geometix is divided into tuo sections 10B and 10A The Solid Geometiv coui se is a one semester course In Algebra courses we attempt to teach the student to think numerically in terms of literal or abstract quantities and therefore show him how to apply this method of think- ing to the solution of practical problems. Great stress is placed upon uniformity of method principles and Algebraic rules. 447 7:1 9 Xl -fflfijkx 'QQ 47 ' - n.w.H, thetic and analvtic proofs The exercise of this much needed faculty of reasoning IS stim ulated bv placing much stress on the solution of original exercises while the practical and real problems keep up the student s interest and show the practical applications vx hich can be made of the theorems of plane and solid Geometry. Each student w ho completes the course in Geometry should have a very good conception of the space relations of the world in which he lives.
