Final Exam - Monday 3/15

• Study Pages from 2002
  Note: Most of this review material is appropriate for this year, though there was a bit more on polyhedra in 445 instead of 444 that year.
• Study Pages from 2003, including Final Exam and Answers.
  Note: This material from 2003 can be quite valuable, but should be used with caution. The syllabus in 2003 was different from 2004 in several respects. The main difference was that barycentric coordinates were introduced in 445 instead of 444 as this year and also more of the introduction to polyhedra was in 445 instead of 444 as this year.

  For example on the Midterm (which is given with answers), the first question is about spherical geometry, the second is about parametrizing a line (which we studied in 444 but are using again recently on the sphere). Question 3 is about geodesics on a cylinder, a topic which we skipped this year. Question 4 is a question about barycentric coordinates and Ceva which would have appeared in 444 this year (though we used this in As 8 to subdivide the triangle into 9 sub-triangles.

  On the other hand, the questions in quizzes 2 and 3 and the Final Exam (except for problem 4) are all appropriate for 2004.
