RGPV First Year Syllabus and important questions of BT-102 Mathematics-I

BT-102 Mathematics-I is a subject of BTech First year. Learn core engineering mathematics including calculus, multiple integrals, Fourier series, vector spaces, matrices, eigenvalues, and practical problem-solving techniques.

Objective of BT-102 Mathematics-I:

The objective of this course is to familiarize the prospective engineers with techniques in
calculus, multivariate analysis and linear algebra. It aims to equip the students with standard concepts and
tools at an intermediate to advanced level that will serve them well towards tackling more advanced level of
mathematics and applications that they would find useful in their disciplines. More precisely, the objectives
are:

  • To introduce the idea of applying differential and integral calculus to notions of curvature and to improper integrals. Apart from some applications it gives a basic introduction on Beta and Gamma functions.
  • To introduce the fallouts of Rolle’s Theorem that is fundamental to application of analysis to Engineering problems.
  • To develop the tool of power series and Fourier series for learning advanced Engineering Mathematics.
  • To familiarize the student with functions of several variables that is essential in most branches of engineering.
  • To develop the essential tool of matrices and linear algebra in a comprehensive manner.
