Geometry Credit: 1.0 credit, Year Prerequisite: Placement based on a student’s 8th grade. Algebra experience and the EXPLORE math score. Lab Fee: None This course is based on the principles of Euclidean, plane, and solid geometries. Students will be introduced to the basic postulates and theorems of geometry and encouraged to extend these ideas to the topics of similarity, circles, area, volume, and proof. Additional topics include constructions, probability, and basic concepts of algebra. Accelerated Geometry Credit: 1.0 credit, Year Prerequisite: Placement based on a student’s 8th grade. Algebra experience and the EXPLORE math score. Lab Fee: None This course is based on the principles of Euclidean, plane, and solid geometries. Students will be introduced to the basic postulates and theorems of geometry and encouraged to extend these ideas to the topics of similarity, circles, area, volume, and proof. Additional topics include constructions, probability, and basic concepts of algebra. In addition, students are involved in a more technological, theoretical, and algebraic approach to geometry.
Algebra 1
Credit: 1.0 credit,
Year Prerequisite: MA101/102
This course integrates
traditional algebra topics with various methods of problem solving. Topics
include: sets, properties of the real number system, exponents, radicals,
polynomials, functions, graphing, equations, probability, statistics, and
quadratics.
Credit: 1.0 credit, Year Prerequisite: MA221/222 or equivalent Lab Fee: None
This course is a
traditional second year of algebra. Topics include: a brief review and
extension of basic algebra principles; linear, quadratic, rational, radical,
logarithmic, and exponential functions and equations; matrices; probability
and statistics; and basic trigonometric functions and their properties. Credit: 1.0 credit, Year Prerequisite: A or B in MA221/222 Lab Fee: None
This course combines a
second year of algebra and the study of trigonometric functions. Topics
include those listed above in Algebra 2 plus: sequences and series;
combinatorics; properties of trigonometric and inverse trigonometric
functions; trigonometric equations; solutions of oblique and right
triangles. MA401/402 College Algebra Credit: 1.0 credit, Year Prerequisite: MA301/302 Lab Fee: None
