CALCULUS WITH ANALYTIC GEOMETRY I

3176(1 high school credit) (NRCC college credit in MTH 263, 4 college credits) Grade Level: 11 and 12 Prerequisite: A letter grade of C in Pre-Calculus Dual Enrollment

Applied Calculus will cover matrices, limits, continuity, differentiation of algebraic and transcendental functions with applications and an introduction to integration. Students will follow the course guide and will use the texts of New River Community College for Applied Calculus 1 or Math 271.

COMPUTER MATHEMATICS

3184(1 credit) Grade Level: 10, 11, and 12 Prerequisite: None

This course is intended to provide students with experiences solving mathematical problems using computer programming techniques and the graphing calculator. Students will use these tools to solve problems in the areas of business, personal finance, leisure activities, sports, and probability and statistics. In addition, students will use programming techniques to determine problem-solving strategies and analyze data in the form of charts, graphs and tables.

GEOMETRY PART I

3141(1 elective credit) Grade Level: 9, 10, 11 and 12 Prerequisite: Algebra I Parts I and II or Algebra I

Geometry Part I is the first semester of a two-semester sequence. Basic geometry terminology, polygons, translations, logical reasoning, and area and perimeter of plane figures are studied.

GEOMETRY PART II

3142(1 credit) Grade Level: 9, 10, 11, and 12 Prerequisite: Geometry Part I EOC Test: Standards of Accreditation require an End of Course Test upon completion of this course.

Geometry Part II will continue the study of topics begun in Geometry Part I and extend the study to include area and volume of polyhedrons, parallel lines, congruent and similar triangles, parallelograms, and circles.

GEOMETRY A

3143(1 credit) Grade Level: 9, 10, 11, and 12 Prerequisite: Algebra I or Algebra I Part II. Students should have earned at least a C average in prior Algebra courses. EOC Test: Standards of Accreditation require an End of Course Test upon completion of this course. Geometry A will include the study of the concepts of plane, space, and coordinate geometry. An extensive study is made of lines, planes, angles, and their relationships. Emphasis is placed on deductive proofs, construction of figures using basic, geometric tools, and applications of geometric concepts to practical situations.

PROBABILILTY/STATISTICS
