Courses taught:

Intermediate Algebra

Prerequisite: Successful completion of Linear Algebra (8th grade)

Length: Year-long

Intermediate Algebra encourages and enables students to use the language, symbols and notation of mathematics, to be confident using mathematics to analyze and solve problems both in and out of school, and to develop the knowledge and skills necessary to pursue further studies in mathematics. The course includes a thorough review of linear relationships, an introduction to exponential and quadratic relationships, a foundation in the language of functions, a survey of transformations and a solid study of secondary level statistics and probability.

Geometry

Prerequisite: Successful completion of Intermediate Algebra

Length: Year-long

Geometry students will study points, lines, line segments, rays, planes, and vectors in their exploration of angles, polygons, circles, lengths, areas, and volumes. The concepts of justified mathematical reasoning and logic based on mathematical conjectures will be emphasized.  Algebraic skills will be used and expanded upon as we build further understanding of the interconnectedness of mathematics. Emphasis will be placed on congruent figures, as well as similar figures and their ratios, and right triangle trigonometric ratios.
