This pre-calculus course is the culmination of all math courses, with the addition of Trigonometry. Students learn how algebra and geometry are related and applied in the real world.
Topics include:
Basic statistics, and sequences and series
Number systems, graphs, systems of equations
Functions, including polynomial functions, power functions and rational functions
Exponential and logarithmic functions
Trigonometric functions with real-world applications
Analytic trigonometry and appropriate applications
Analytic geometry in two and three dimensions
SAT/ACT preparation throughout the year, skills essential for standardized testing.
Development of logical reasoning and thinking skills
Organization and study skills, to be a more independent learner
Students who complete this class should be well prepared to enter a college level calculus course. It isimperative that students enrolling in PreCal have a working knowledge of Geometry and Algebra 2. This is a very fast-paced class. Teacher recommendation is required for this class. If you have questions about class placement, please contact me as early as possible so that decisions may be made in a timely manner to allow the student maximum success in their math studies.
Students should expect to spend 3 – 6 hours outside of class on their work per week. The class meets for 1 ½ hours on Mondays and Wednesdays for a total of 3 hours each week. This class will earn the student 1 high school honors credit in math.
