Course objectives
Basics of 3-D geometry. Combinatorics and probability. Solving of problems of Olympiad of Mathematics. At the end of the course students should be able to: put these themes into the context of secondary-school mathematics; solve more difficult tasks of these themes including problems of the lower levels of Olympiad of Mathematics.
Syllabus
  • Basic concepts: layer- and metric- properties of 3-D objects
  • ations without and with repetitions, clasical probability.
