"The text assumes the reader has a foundation in
mathematics and physics that include algebra, trigonometry, analytic
geometry, elementary calculus, and introductory physics.
The first four chapters rely on algebra and the ability to write
the equation of a straight line. Chapters
5 and 6 make use of elementary calculus in presenting the solutions to
simple first- and second-order differential equations.
Chapter 7 relies heavily on trigonometry and the algebra of complex
numbers." - Authors of the course text.
Mathematical procedures are used after the application of the physical principles are expressed in mathematical form for solution. It follows that more weight attaches to being able to apply those physical principles and arrive at the mathematical expression than being able to solve that mathematical expression. Both however must be mastered!! So here is a mathematics primer associated with one of the
books, Irwin: A Brief Introduction to Circuit Analysis, referred
to on the home page.
