Algebra 2 10 grade
Course Number: 3205 Full Year 1 Credit
Prerequisite: Algebra 1
The following topics will be covered: equations & inequalities, systems, quadratic functions, real &
complex numbers, polynomial functions and matrices. In the classroom, the student will learn to use
multiple representations to analyze questions and evaluate answers. (TI-83 Plus graphing calculator is
required for this course). A standardized End-of-Course exam, mandated by the State of Ohio is
required for Algebra 1.

Prerequisite: Geometry (C or better)
Algebra 2 is an extension of our College Preparatory program. The student will expand their
understanding of the four critical topics formulated from State Standards: functions, modeling, geometry
and statistics & probability. Topics will include in depth exploration of polynomial, rational, radical and
exponential functions. The course will examine right triangle trigonometry, trigonometric identities, the
unit circle and transformation on graphs of diverse functions. Emphasis of instruction will be the
development of Standards of Mathematics Practices. (TI-83 Plus graphing calculator is required for
this course).

Course Number: 3315 Full Year 1 Credit
Prerequisite: Algebra 2-(Course #3210)
This course is offered to strengthen the mathematical skills of students who have successfully completed
Algebra 2, but are not ready to enter Pre-Calculus. Graphing calculators are used throughout the course to
promote a student’s ability to visualize functions, to simulate experiments, and to develop a concept of
limit. Topics include polynomial, trigonometric, exponential and logarithmic functions, sequences and
series, and permutations. (TI-83 plus graphing calculator is required for this class).

Course Number: 3310 Full Year 1 Credit
Prerequisite: B- or better in either Algebra 2-(Course #3210) or FST with Department
Recommendation.
This course is required for those students entering technical, scientific, mathematical, computer science, or
business majors in college. The course includes: functions of the acute angle; solutions of right triangles;
solutions of oblique triangles; functions of two angles; complex numbers. This course will also cover the
five basic plane curves-straight line, the study of conic sections, determinants and matrices, solutions of
higher equations; and sequence and series. The major objective of the course is to prepare the student for a
first-year Calculus course. Every student successful in this course should plan to take AP Calculus AB the
following year. (TI- 83 plus graphing calculator is required for this course).
