Section/Topics from Elementary Linear Algebra, 11th

edition, by Anton & Rorres

3hrs that mean I should be done by 9 IA.

Sections 4.3 - 4.10 (Main topics: Linear dependence, linear

independence and basis of a vector space, change of basis, basis of
the row space of a matrix, basis of column space of a matrix, basis of
null space of a matrix, nullity and rank of a matrix, linear
transformations, reflections, projections, rotations, matrix of a linear
transformation (you should know how to find the matrix of a linear
transformation, and you should know that the matrix of the
composition of two linear transformation is just the product of the
matrices of the two linear transformations (in the same order), and the
matrix of the inverse of a linear transformation is the inverse of the
matrix of the linear transformation)

Sections 5.1 - 5.2 (Main topics: eigenvalues, eigenvectors,

eigenspaces, diagonalization of a matrix, finding powers of a matrix by
using diagonalization

Sections/Topics from Differential Equations with BoundaryValue Problems, 7th edition, by Zill & Cullen 3hrs that mean
I should be done by 5 IA.

Section 4.2 (Main topic: Using reduction of order to find a second

solution of a second-order homogeneous differential equation)

Section 4.3 (Main topic: Finding the general solution of

a homogeneous ordinary differential equation with constant
coefficients)

Section 4.4 (Main topic: Finding the solution of a

nonhomogeneous ordinary differential equation by using the
table given on page 144, but make sure that no function in the
assumed particular solution yp is present in the general solution yc of
the corresponding homogeneous equation. This method is called the
method of undetermined coefficients, and it is a shortcut of the
annihilator approach given in Section 4.5. It is better if you first do
Section 4.5 then Section 4.4, so that you can understand from where
the table is coming.

Section 4.5 (Main topic: Finding the solution of a

nonhomogeneous ordinary differential equation by converting it into a
homogeneous equation by applying some differential operator, this

approach is called the annihilator approach. I suggest that you use this
method instead of using the table given on page 144 of Section 4.4 to
avoid any mistake)

Section 4.6 (Main topic: Using variation of parameters to find a

particular solution of a nonhomogeneous equation if you are given two
linearly independent solutions of the corresponding homogeneous
equation)

Section 4.7 (Main topic: Finding the solution of Cauchy-Euler

equation (homogeneous or nonhomogeneous) by using the
substitution x=e^t.

Sections 8.1 & 8.2 (Main topics: Finding solutions of a

homogeneous system of first-order differential equations by using
eigenvectors (you should know how to deal with the three cases: when
the eigenvalues are distinct real numbers, when an eigenvalue is
repeated, or when eigenvalues are complex numbers)
