Series Details
About
I'll cover the entire unit on parametric equations, polar coordinates, and vector-valued functions from Khan Academy, with lots of practice problems, examples, and opportunities to ask questions! Prior knowledge of basic calculus (derivatives and integrals) and vectors (addition and multiplication) will be very helpful, but I can still work with you to catch you up if you don't have much experience.
