Pre-Calculus – Credit Recovery

In this course, students will understand and apply concepts, graphs, and applications of a variety of families of functions, including polynomial, exponential, logarithmic, logistic, and trigonometric. An emphasis will be placed on use of appropriate functions to model real-world situations and solve problems that arise from those situations. A focus is also on graphing functions by hand and understanding and identifying the parts of a graph. A scientific and/or graphics calculator is recommended for work on assignments and on examinations.

Pre-Calculus part B covers the major units of introductory trigonometry and graphs, trigonometric equations and identities, analytical trigonometry, sequences and series, conic sections, and an introduction to calculus. A focus is also on graphing functions by hand and understanding and identifying the parts of a graph.
