Course Description: Trigonometry
Trigonometry is an extensive study of relationships among parts of triangles both right and oblique. It also includes proving of identities, solving and graphing of trigonometric equations, radian measure, polar coordinates, complex numbers, and logarithms.
Note: Trigonometry is a weighted class.
Needed Materials: Pencils (no pens please), paper, and scientific calculator.
Course Description: Geometry
Geometry will study properties of two and three dimensional figures. Proper notation, definitions, postulates, and theorems will be applied with logical reasoning to write formal proofs of geometric properties. Relationships of angles made by parallel lines, parts and types of triangles, congruent and similar polygons, identifying quadrilaterals, and properties of circles will be emphasized. Finding missing parts of right triangles using Pythagorean Theorem, 45-45-90 and 30-60-90 relationships, and trigonometry will also be covered as well as finding perimeter, circumference, area, volume, and surface area of geometric figures.
Needed Materials: Pencils, paper, three-ring binder (2in), and scientific calculator.
Course Description: Algebra II
Algebra II will continue to build on the concepts of Algebra I, such as solving equations, slope and graphing, systems, and factoring. Quadratics, complex numbers, functions and inverses, radicals, conic sections, solving higher order equations, and rational expressions will be studied.
Needed Materials: Pencils, paper, and scientific calculator.
