Geometric topics include corresponding and alternate interior and exterior angles, vectors, and conversions between polar and rectangular coordinates. It also introduces many of the concepts covered in advanced mathematics, including functions and functional notation, graphing, and the basics of trigonometry and the trigonometry of the circle. An introduction to probability is included. Students must obtain a graphing calculator for this course. Advanced Mathematics is a combination of algebra III, trigonometry, and geometry.
Emphasis is given to the algebra of logarithms and exponentials.
Trigonometric topics include equations, identities, and the equations and graphs of sinusoids. Other topics covered in depth include matrices, determinants, arithmetic series, geometric series, conic sections, roots of higher-order polynomials equations, and functions, including curve sketching. AP Calculus Calculus is designed to prepare the student to perform successfully on the College Board Advanced Placement Calculus AP exam. Topics include a thorough treatment of the mechanics and applications of derivatives and integrals in one variable, as well as a detailed study of the uses of a great variety of functions and their graphs. Pre-requisite, Advanced Mathematics .
