INTERMEDIATE ALGEBRA A
No. 1202 & 1203 | Course Credit: 2 | Grade Level: 9 - 10
The content of Intermediate Algebra is organized around families of functions, with special emphasis on linear and quadratic functions. As you study each family of functions, you will learn to represent them in multiple ways - as verbal descriptions, equations, tables, and graphs. You will also learn to model real-world situations using functions in order to solve problems arising from those situations. In addition, probability and data analysis will be covered. These math topics often appear on standardized tests, so maintaining your familiarity with Intermediate Algebra is important.
Intermediate Algebra B
(Prerequisite: No. 1201)
No. 1210 & 1211 | Course Credit: 2 | Grade Level: 10 - 12
Students must have successfully completed Beginning Algebra to enroll in Intermediate Algebra B. Students who have not successfully completed Intermediate Algebra may enroll in Intermediate Algebra B with teacher approval. Any student who has completed Geometry must check with the Intermediate Algebra B instructor before enrolling in these classes. This course is designed to enforce and meet student’s understanding of algebraic topics and standards they were exposed to in previous math classes. Students will use interactive problem solving and learning strategies too . Topics that will be covered include formulas, solving linear equations, nonlinear functions, graphing data and inequalities, and probability and statistics and polynomial operations.
GEOMETRY A
No. 1224 & 1225 | Course Credit: 2 | Grade Level: 9 - 12
In Geometry, you will develop reasoning and problem solving skills as you study topics such as congruence and similarity, and apply properties of lines, triangles, quadrilaterals, and circles. You will also develop problem solving skills by using length, perimeter, area, surface area, and volume to solve real-world problems. In addition, there will be numerous examples and problems involving algebra, data analysis, and probability. These math topics often appear on standardized tests, so maintaining your familiarity with them is important.
Geometry B
(Prerequisite: No. 1211)
No. 1204 & 1205 | Course Credit: 2 | Grade Level: 9 - 12
Students must have successfully completed Intermediate Algebra B before taking this class. Concepts covered include logic and reasoning, similarity and congruence, polygons, circles, ratio and proportion, trigonometry, coordinate geometry, and three-dimensional geometry.
