Mathematical Models with Applications
In this course, student use algebraic, graphical, and geometric reasoning to recognize patterns
and structure, to model information, and to solve problems from various disciplines. Students
use mathematical methods to model and solve reallife applied problems involving
money, data, chance, patterns, music design, and science. Math models from algebra,
geometry, probability, and statistics and connections among these are used to solve problems
from a wide variety of advanced applications in both mathematical and nonmathematical
situations.
Pre Integrated Mathematics I
The focus of Pre Integrated Math is to introduce algebraic symbols, vocabulary and
expressions; to solve equations and inequalities; to study properties used in geometry. To
provide the necessary background for further studies in mathematics and other fields dependent
on mathematics. Skills include: To develop ideas in algebra, geometry, functions, matrices, logic
and proofs, probability, and growth models with and emphasis on using an integrated approach
and additional background prior to entering Integrated Pathway Mathematics I.
Pre Integrated Mathematics II
The focus of pre integrated mathematics II is to give students a chance to extend algebra and
geometry skills in preparation for taking Integrated Mathematics II. Skills include: To review and
further develop an understanding of the basic concepts of algebra, geometry, logic, probability,
and statistics. To provide the necessary background for further studies in mathematics and
other fields dependent on mathematics and additional background prior to entering Integrated
Pathway Mathematics II.
Pre Calculus (Cum Laude Recognition)
To provide the necessary background for further studies in mathematics and other fields
dependent on mathematics. Skills include: To increase student's knowledge of advanced
algebra, functions, transformations, analytic geometry, exponents, logarithms, and trigonometry.
To provide insights into the methods of thinking in advanced mathematics. PreCalculus course
covers the study of Elementary Functions, Analytic Geometry, and Math Analysis as preparation
for Calculus. Topics include the study of complex numbers, polynomial, logarithmic,
exponential, rational, and circular functions and their relations, inverses and graphs, conic
sections, Boolean algebra, and symbolic logic, mathematical induction, matrix algebra,
sequences and series, and limits and continuity.
Trigonometry (Cum Laude Recognition)
Course prepares students for eventual work in calculus and includes the following topics:
trigonometric and circular functions; their inverses and graphs, relations among the parts of a
triangle, trigonometric identities and equations, solutions of a right and oblique triangles, and
complex numbers.
