Algebra is the foundation for future studies in mathematics and many sciences. This course will introduce the topics of linear expressions, linear equations and inequalities, graphs of linear and quadratic functions, exponents and polynomials, radical expressions, data analysis and probability. By using and relating words, tables, graphs and equations, an emphasis will be placed on conceptual understanding, applications and utilizing algebra as a problem-solving tool.

Geometry is the study of the properties, measurements and relationships of points, lines, angles, surfaces and solids. Additional topics of study will include symmetry, transformations, similarity and right triangle trigonometry. Geometric constructions will be used to aid in establishing the validity of conjectures. This course will focus on applications of the concepts relating to measurement and geometry.

This course will continue the study of topics introduced in Algebra 1. Concepts including linear and quadratic functions, systems of equations and inequalities, exponents, polynomials, data analysis and probability will be developed in this course. Matrices, analytic geometry and trigonometric functions will also be introduced. An emphasis will be placed on problem solving and real-world applications of topics.

This course will prepare students for the study of higher-level mathematics. Topics include functions and their graphs, trigonometry, systems of equations and inequalities, matrices, vectors, analytic geometry and polar coordinates. Modeling of real world applications will be emphasized through out the course.

This course has been designed for those students who have shown significant mastery of algebraic and trigonometric skills. Students are exposed to studies in many rigorous topics including: limits, continuity, differentiation, definition of the integral, fundamental theorem of calculus, exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric functions, techniques of integration and various applications.

Students who meet the qualification requirements may enroll in the Postsecondary Option. Students will earn high school credit for math as well as 5-quarter hours of credit from Hocking College upon successful completion of the course. This course is an extension of high school algebra and is designed for students who have successfully completed Algebra 2. Topics of study include linear and quadratic equations and inequalities, factoring, radicals, simultaneous equations and graphing techniques.

In this course students will study topics in algebra, geometry, measurement, data analysis and probability. This course is designed to prepare students for successful completion of the mathematics section of the Ohio Graduation Test. Content will be based on the state standards for mathematics.
