Model higher-dimensional constraints with OrgFlow and share annotated diagrams through DiagramDB as you collaborate.

📐 Vectors and 3D Space

Extend calculus concepts into three dimensions with vectors, planes, and surfaces.

Key Concepts:

  • • Vector operations (dot product, cross product)
  • • Equations of lines and planes
  • • Cylindrical and spherical coordinates
  • • Vector-valued functions

∂ Partial Derivatives

Analyze functions of multiple variables by taking derivatives with respect to one variable at a time.

Topics:

  • • Partial derivatives ∂f/∂x, ∂f/∂y
  • • Gradient vectors and directional derivatives
  • • Tangent planes and linear approximation
  • • Chain rule for multivariable functions
  • • Critical points and second derivative test

∫∫ Multiple Integrals

Extend integration to functions of multiple variables for calculating volumes, masses, and more.

Integration Methods:

  • • Double integrals over rectangles and general regions
  • • Triple integrals and volumes
  • • Change of variables (Jacobian)
  • • Cylindrical and spherical coordinates

∇ Vector Calculus

Study vector fields and their properties using line integrals, surface integrals, and fundamental theorems.

Major Theorems:

  • • Line integrals and work
  • • Green's Theorem
  • • Divergence and curl
  • • Stokes' Theorem
  • • Divergence Theorem (Gauss's Theorem)
