The aim of this course is that the student:
- masters some basic concepts of probability and statistics, specially those necessary for geographic information course units;
- masters basic concepts and results of trigonometry; and plane gepmetry;
- masters basic concepts, techniques and some applications about graphs and functions of real varible.
1) Statics and numerical methods:
Sum symbol; average, variance, standard deviation; Correlation coefficient of two variables and least squares line; interpretation and application of concepts and results.
2) Trigonometry:
Oriented angles; Trigonometric circle; Measure of an angle. Sine,cossine and tangent of an angle. Applications.
3) Geometry:
Coordinate axes and point coordinates; Distance between two points; Circle and sphere equations.Plane symmetries; applications: friezes and tesselations. Introduction to fractals.
4) Graphs and Functions:
Using graphs and tables to present information. Function: concept, graph and properties.
Presentation of topics in lectures, including the relevant examples.
Exercises presented in the course's homepage, solved in example classes.

The final mark is the sum of the classifications in 3 tests.
The first and the second tests are for 7 points each and the third for 6 points. For approval the student should obtain at least 9,50 points as total sum of the tests. If the student doesn't do the test he/she gets 0 (zero) points.
During the exam period there is an additional test divided in 3 parts, each corresponding to a test, so that each student can improve the classification obtained in a test or tests.
An additional test, either written or oral, may be asked of students aiming at marks over 18 out of 20.
The student can add up to 2 points to the final mark (to a maximum of 20 points) by solving extra given exercises: 4 exercises, more difficult than those solved at the xample classes, corresponding to different parts of the program, each quoted to 0,5 points. At one of the final classes, the students will present an exercise.
