Mathematics-I for Computer Science and Engineering Stream
VTU 2022 scheme (OBE and CBCS, effective 2022-23) · Integrated course (theory + lab), 4 credits, L:T:P 2:2:2. 50 CIE + 50 SEE. CIE: theory 30 (three 20-mark tests + 20 marks of assignments/quizzes, 80 scaled to 30) + practical 20 (15 for lab records, 5 for lab test). SEE: 3-hour, 100-mark paper scaled to 50; 10 questions, 2 per module, 20 marks each (usually 6+7+7 sub-parts), answer one from each module; lab-based sub-questions up to 25 marks. Pass: min 18/50 in SEE and 40/100 overall.

Let P(r, θ) lie on the curve, ψ = angle of tangent with initial line, φ = angle between radius vector and tangent, so ψ = θ + φ. x = r cos θ, y = r sin θ, tan ψ = dy/dx = (sin θ dr/dθ + r cos θ)/(cos θ dr/dθ - r sin θ). Divide by cos θ dr/dθ: tan ψ = (tan θ + r dθ/dr)/(1 - tan θ r dθ/dr). Compare with tan(θ + φ) to get tan φ = r dθ/dr.
Full-marks tip: Draw the figure with O, P, the radius vector, the tangent, and angles θ, φ, ψ marked; it carries marks. End with the boxed result.

Local market tip
Check that the guide says BMATS101 and has the Modular Arithmetic module; 21-scheme (21MAT11) or 2025-scheme (1BMATS101) books have different modules, so buy only after confirming your batch's scheme.
