ALGEBRA A Prerequisites: None (enrollment by staff placement) Supplies: Notebook paper and pencil, TI-30xIIS calculator Algebra A is a course designed to review pre-algebra skills and begin a study of Algebra I. Along with Algebra B, it will allow the student to complete Algebra I over a two year period. This course will cover circles, polygons, statistics, probability, equations, inequalities, graphing, surface area and volume, variables, exponents, order of operations, properties of real numbers, solving linear equations, and polynomials.
ALGEBRA B Prerequisites: Algebra A Supplies: Ruler, notebook, pencil, TI-30xIIS calculator Algebra B will continue the study of Algebra I for the second year. This course will cover linear equations, lines of best fit, linear inequalities, statistics, systems of linear equations, Exponents, scientific notation, quadratics, polynomials and factoring.
ALGEBRA I Prerequisites: None (enrollment by staff placement) Supplies: Notebook and pencil, TI-30xIIS calculator, Students will be using problem-solving skills in Algebraic situations. This class will further the study of real numbers, teach the student to develop, solve, and graph equations and begin some basic skills in solving systems of equations and inequalities. Students will focus on applications. This course is required for Board of Regents recommended curriculum.
GEOMETRY Prerequisites: Algebra I; (Enrollment can be current with Algebra II and Geometry) Supplies: Ruler; protractor; compass; TI-30xIIS calculator; 3-ring binder with 5 dividers, notebook paper (No Spirals!) and pencils. This class provides methods for solving real life problems by applying geometric ideas. It will introduce the basic definitions, postulates and theorems used in proving statements about shapes and solids, and examine their properties, measurement, and mutual relations in space. This course is required for Board of Regents recommended curriculum.
MATH APPLICATIONS Prerequisites: Junior or Senior; Instructor Recommendation Supplies: Notebook paper and pencils; TI-30xIIS calculator This class is desgned as a problem solving class. Students will review and/or be introduced to concepts in algebra, geometry, probability, statistics, and personal finance. Those concepts will then be applied to real life mathematics. This course does not meet the requirements for the Board of Regents recommended curriculum.
ALGEBRA II Prerequisites: Algebra I; Geometry (Enrollment can be current with Algebra II and Geometry) Supplies: Straight edge, notebook paper and pencils/Eversharp, scientific calculator or graphing calculator (TI-83), red ball point pen This class is a continuation of Algebra I. The student will study the complex number system, work with quadratic functions and equations and will begin some basic trigonometry. This class will help the student to recognize and apply algebraic and trigonometric concepts and skills. This course is required for Board of Regents recommended curriculum.
ALGEBRA III/ACCC COLLEGE ALGEBRA Concurrent with ACCC College Algebra (MAT 105) in the spring 3 Credit Hours Prerequisites: Qualifying score of 21 on ACT math section or pass ASSET Test; Geometry and Algebra II Supplies: Compass; protractor; standard ruler; TI-30xIIS and/or graphing calculator (TI-83) Tuition: $68.00 Per Credit Hour ($204) for 3 Credit Hours The ACCC College Algebra part of the course can be taken for dual credit. The first semester of Algebra III is not ACCC, but is a prerequisite for the College Algebra second semester. The two classes are designed to be a preparation for trigonometry and pre-calculus. It will continue development in logarithms, functions, matrices, sequences and series. This class will also deal with vectors, analytical geometry, polar coordinates and complex numbers. College Algebra is generally required for those attending college.
ACCC TRIGONOMETRY (SEMESTER) Concurrent with ACCC Plane Trigonometry (MAT 106) in fall 3 Credit Hours ($204) Prerequisites: 2 Years of high school algebra; "C" or better in ACCC College Algebra/Algebra III Supplies: Compass; protractor; standard ruler; TI-30xIIS calculator and/or graphing calculator (TI-83) Tuition: $68.00 Per Credit Hour ($204) Total for 3 Credit Hours) This course introduces the study of trigonometric functions. The course includes graphs of the trigonometric functions, radian measure, solution of triangles, and many other applications. The course is designed primarily for those who have not had a course of trigonometry in high school. Students who are intending to take calculus should take Pre-Calculus MAT 120.
ACCC PRE-CACULUS (SEMESTER) Concurrent with ACCC Pre-Calculus (MAT 120) in the spring 3 Credit Hours ($204) Prerequisites: "C" or better in ACCC College Algebra/Algebra III Supplies: Compass; protractor; standard ruler; TI-30xIIS calculator and/or graphing calculator (TI-83) Tuition: $68.00 Per Credit Hour ($204 Total for 3 Credit Hours) This course includes the study of algebraic, transcendental, and trigonometric functions. The course also includes a general background in analytic geometry and linear algebra.
