LOGAN-ROGERSVILLE R-VIII MATHEMATICS CURRICULUM

Math Analysis

 

Course Rationale

Math Analysis is a preparatory course for the student entering secondary education.  Math Analysis will prepare the successful student for the Calculus series and any technical courses he/she might choose as well.  The course provides the college bound student with the necessary skills to move on in his/her education.  In the changing society of the new century, job opportunities available will require more education than in the past and this course will provide the student with enough mathematical skill to choose any field of study he/she chooses to be an effective candidate for employment in any field and to be a good addition to society.

 

Course Description

This course is designed to study the theories and applications of trigonometry, analytical geometry, probability, statistics, matrices and vectors, conics, exponential and logarithmic problem solving, and an introduction to calculus.
