The approach of this course relates basic skills to new material. I is designed for freshmen students who have demonstrated a working knowledge of mathematics. The course covers traditional topics, including properties of real numbers, algebraic expressions and linear and quadratic equations.
Emphasis is given to problem solving and graphing.
Some advanced material also is introduced for the purpose of comparison of similar properties. . This level approaches the subject of Algebra at an accelerated pace with an emphasis in problem-solving and its relationships with advanced topics. . This course covers the usual topics of Geometry such as fundamental relationships involving triangles, quadrilaterals and circles. The concepts of congruency, similarity, perimeter and area are applied to common-life situations. Algebraic principles discovered in Algebra also are applied and extended. .
