MATH 232, Section 3: Homework for Chapter 9 - revised     May 13, 2004

The main topics we covered in Chapter 9 were
(1) Vectors: picture, length & direction, component form, $\mathbf{i},\mathbf{j}$, operations (addition, scalar mult., dot product), unit vectors, tangents & normals, angle between vectors, orthogonal (=perpendicular) vectors, projection, vector functions & calculus, position vector, velocity vector, acceleration vector, curves given in vector form
(2) Polar co-ordinates: definition, picture, graphing in polar co-ordinates, switching between polar & Cartesian co-ordinates, intersecting polar curves, the area inside a polar curve or between two polar curves


The following is a trimmed version of the homework I originally gave for Chapter 9. If you just want to see which problems I cut, look at the second list below.

§9.1, p. 726 #5,6,7,9,11,12,14,15,17ab,18bc,19,22,24,26,27,29,
