Concepts and theorems of polynomial and rational equations and functions are reviewed and extended to include holes, slant asymptotes and limit notation to end behavior. Students extend their understanding of quadratic, radical and rational equations to encompass inequalities of the same. Unit 1: Introduction to Precalculus and Polynomial Functions Prerequisite: MTH203: Geometry and MTH303: Algebra II (or equivalents) Demonstrating the connection between the algebra and the geometry of concepts highlights the interwoven nature of the study of mathematics. Purposeful concentration is placed on how the concepts covered relate to each other. The second semester covers an introduction to infinite series, trigonometric ratios, functions, and equations inverse trigonometric functions applications of trigonometry, including vectors polar equations and polar form of complex numbers arithmetic of complex numbers and parametric equations.Ĭonnections are made throughout the course to calculus and a variety of other fields related to mathematics. Topics include quadratic, exponential, logarithmic, radical, polynomial, and rational functions matrices and conic sections in the first semester. The course focuses on the mastery of critical skills and exposure to new skills necessary for success in subsequent math courses. Pre-calculus weaves together concepts of algebra and geometry into a preparatory course for calculus.
