This course is a full year PreCalculus course, which presents an in-depth examination of analytic trigonometry, trigonometric functions, exponential and logarithmic functions, polynomial and rational functions, and introduction to limits. The intent is to study and apply advanced mathematical topics while developing the student’s abstract and critical thinking skills. A strong background in Honors Algebra II will be required from the beginning of the course, and students will be expected to understand the concepts taught in class, as well as to transfer them to novel applications and problem solving situations. Scientific and graphing calculators are required.
Geometry combines the essential elements of plane geometry and the basics of solid geometry. Strong emphasis is placed on deductive reasoning and writing original proofs. In addition, the student is given the opportunity to develop powers of spatial visualization, strengthen basic algebraic skills, and learn to use precise and clear mathematical language. A strong background in Algebra I is required from the beginning of the course. A scientific calculator is required.
