Pre-calculus course is an overview of algebraic and trigonometric principles.
Emphasis is placed on functions in both disciplines.
The theory of mathematics is stressed and the concept of limit is presented. This course is designed to develop the ability to think in abstract terms while mastering the concept of mathematics indicated in the course description. The student should develop a positive attitude and sound background in mathematics that enables them to apply these concepts to further study and real-life situations. The student will be able to solve and graph linear, quadratic and absolute inequalities. The student will be able to apply the techniques of graphing to represent functions, such as quadratic functions, polynomial functions, exponential functions, and logarithmic functions.
