Algebra 2 & Trigonometry Course Content

The purpose of this course is to develop the algebraic relationships and deductive strategies that can be used to solve a variety of real-world and mathematical concepts. 

Topics:              The content will include, but not limited to, the following:

·         Practice in fundamental operations of arithmetic and properties of real numbers.

·         Concepts of equations, inequalities, polynomials, and functions.

·         Structure and properties of the complex number systems.

·         Relations, functions, and graphs extended to polynomial, exponential, and logarithmic functions.

·         Varied solution strategies for linear equations, inequalities, and systems of equations and inequalities.

·         Varied solution strategies, including quadratic formula, for quadratic equations.

·         Conic sections and their applications.

·         Data analysis, including measures of central tendency and dispersion.

·         Probability, permutations, and combinations.

Expectations:    After successfully completing this course, the student will:

·         Demonstrate understanding of the different ways numbers are represented.

·         Demonstrate understanding of number systems.

·         Demonstrate understanding of the effects of operations on numbers and the relationship among these operations.

·         Use estimation in problem solving and computation.

·         Demonstrate understanding and application of theories related to numbers.

·         Measure quantities in the real world and use the measures to solve problems.

·         Describe, analyze, and generalize a wide variety of patterns, relations, and functions.

·         Use expressions, equations, inequalities, graphs, and formulas to represent and interpret situations.
