Integrated Math 3 [Competency Based] B

Semester 2: Integrated Math 3 challenges students to gather and apply all of the concepts they have learned in previous courses. Students apply their knowledge of probability and statistics to both given data and data they collect through sample surveys, experiments, and simulations. Students look at polynomials and operations on them, examining the relationship between zeros and factors of polynomials, and use polynomial identities to solve various problems. Students learn that the arithmetic of rational expressions follows the same rules as arithmetic with rational numbers. Students deepen their understanding of trigonometry as they develop and apply the laws of sines and cosines to find missing measures of right and other triangles, determine how many triangles can be formed from a set of side measures, and apply the unit circle and model periodic phenomena by using trigonometric functions. Pulling together all they have learned about function families, students analyze functions, build functions to model relationships, and build new functions from existing functions. They can also construct and compare linear, quadratic, and exponential models; use geometric shapes, their measures, and their properties to describe objects; and apply geometric concepts in modeling situations.
