Learning outcomes

The student is able to

  • explain basic concepts and prove some theorems in Euclidian 2-dimensional geometry and analytical geometry (straight lines and planes) in 3-dimensional space
  • prove assertions about, and calculate, lengths and angles in two dimensions
  • prove assertions about vectors, the scalar product and the vector product, and apply these concepts in problem solving
  • study congruence through the concept of mapping
  • study symmetry through the concept of group
  • use knowledge in geometry to solve problems
