The student's background in algebra is used as a starting point to learn to think deductively about geometric facts concerning plane and three dimensional figures. Units will also include a study of area and volume of geometric figures and trigonometry. A major portion of the course involves proofs. This is a year course. This course prepares the student for post-secondary calculus or high school AP Calculus.
Topics cover analytical geometry, functions, logarithms, and an extensive study of trigonometry.
Calculus topics will be studied second semester. This is a year course. This is a course in the traditional college preparatory sequence. The content includes a review of and extension of Algebra topics with a thorough study of trigonometry and analytical geometry. The goal is to prepare the student for post-secondary mathematics.
