| Course Description: | |
| Integrated Math III/Precalculus Honors is a course that integrates advanced algebra concepts with precalculus concepts in order to prepare students for AP Calculus. It aims to apply and extend what students have learned in previous courses by focusing on finding connections between multiple representations of functions, transformations of different function families, finding zeros of polynomials, including complex numbers, and connecting them to graphs and equations of polynomials, and their inverses. Students will explore the role of randomness and the normal distribution in making statistical conclusions. Students will investigate analytic geometry. Students will be examining exponential and logarithmic functions, including inverses, modeling periodic phenomena with trigonometry, using analytic trigonometry, including law of sines and cosines, as well as trigonometric identities. | |
