1 - Matrices: Basics of matrices. Matrices operations. Classification Matrices.
2 - Determinants of square matrices: Calculation of determinants. Rule Sarrus. Laplace theorem and its applications. Applications of determinants to the linear systems: systems of linear equations. Gauss. Cramer's rule. Calculation of the inverse of an invertible matrix.
3 - Eigenvalues ​​and eigenvectors: Basic concepts of eigenvalues ​​and eigenvectors. Own subspace associated with an eigenvalue. Algebraic and geometric multiplicity. Characteristic polynomial. Cayley-Hamilton theorem. Diagonalization.
4 - Real functions of real variable: Domain contradomínimo. Function: continuous, composite, monotonous, inverse, exponential. Logarithmic. Theorems of Bolzano and Weierstrass. Limits.
5 - Diferenciabilidade.Teoremas fundamental calculus: Rolle, Lagrange and Darboux. Rule of Cauchy. Calculation of indeterminacies. Polynomial approximation of functions. Taylor's formula. Application of these concepts to the study of an entire function.
6 - Integration of functions of one variable. Indefinite integral. Immediate integration by parts and by substitution. Definite integral and its application. Fundamental theorem of integral calculus. Derivative of an integral
7 - Sequences of real numbers: limited sequences, convergent sequences, funfamentais theorems, infinite limits and infinity. Mathematical Induction.

Assesssment methods and criteria:

Classification Type: Quantitativa (0-20)

Evaluation Methodology:
The theoretical classes were essentially expositive, always using practical examples. The practical classes are based on the resolution of exercises and their discussion. The evaluation is made 3 tests (frequencies) to be solved individually. The frequencies have weights 30% (6 values), 35% (7 values) and 35% (7 values), each of these frequencies have a minimum grade of 3 values.
