ADVANCED ALGEBRA 2

This course is designed for students who have a strong aptitude in mathematics, excellent work and study habits, and the ability to move at a faster pace than the students in a regular Algebra 2 course. Topics in Advanced Algebra 2 will be studied in more depth and students will work more challenging problems. The course reviews Algebra 1 and extends that knowledge to include new techniques of factoring polynomials and solving equations. Additional topics include matrices, radicals, complex numbers, the conic sections, quadratic systems, exponential and logarithmic functions, and basic trigonometry.

Prerequisite: A average in Algebra 1 & recommendation of teacher (8th graders also need high math scores on standardized tests. 8th grade students need a FULL course in Algebra 1 before attempting an Algebra 2 course.)

Length of Course: One year (6 of 6)
