Pre-Calculus [Credit Recovery] B

Course Description

The second part of Pre-Calculus Credit Recovery continues your review of some of the fundamental ideas of Pre-Calculus, including trigonometric functions and their graphs, sequences and series, vectors, and conic sections. You will explore angle measurements and their relation to the unit circle. In addition, you will extend your knowledge of the unit circle to trigonometric functions, their solutions, and their graphs. Next, you will explore patterns and relationships among sequences and series and how they are used to model a variety of applications. After extending your knowledge of matrices to vector operations, you will complete the part by studying conic section equations and their graphs.

Course Goals

• Demonstrate the ability to solve problems using the unit circle.
• Compare and contrast trigonometric functions and their inverses.
• Use summation notation while working with arithmetic and geometric sequences and sums.
• Use the binomial theorem, the counting principle, and permutation and combination formulas to calculate probabilities.
• Find magnitudes, direction angles, dot products, and angles between two vectors.
