In this course students will acquire tools to help them explore
two-dimensional and three-dimensional space. These tools
include Euclidean geometry, rigid motion transformations,
dilations and similarity, and coordinate geometry. Students
will learn how to prove various geometric facts about
triangles, quadrilaterals, and circles by using two-column and
flow chart proofs. Finally, students will model real world
objects using geometric formulas for perimeter, area, and
volume. Three dimensional objects such as prisms, pyramids,
cones, cylinders, and spheres will be used in a variety of
models. Please note this course requires a graphing
calculator (TI-83, 83+, 84, 84+, or TI-84 Color).

H Pre-Calculus is an advanced course in high school
mathematics. It presents the mathematics that follows the
study of algebra and geometry and precedes the rigorous
study of calculus. It is designed and recommended for those
who seek careers in mathematics, science, business,
engineering or other technical fields. Topics studied include
the following: review of algebraic concepts; functions and
relations; circular, trigonometric, polynomial, algebraic,
logarithmic and exponential functions. Please note this
course requires a graphing calculator (TI-83, 83+, 84, 84+, or
TI-84 Color).
