ALGEBRA COURSES

Abstract

This handout is a teaching resource for the ALG3 module, aimed at second year students. It spans four chapters: the first three introduce fundamental linear algebra concepts such as eigenvalues, eigenvectors, the characteristic polynomial, matrix diagonalization, and triangularization. The final chapter explores practical applications of these concepts. The handout is designed to aid both students in learning and teachers in instruction, providing a clear and useful reference for understanding and applying linear algebra.
