Course Description

This is the first of three courses designed to prepare you for university entrance. This course covers the properties of fractions, exponents and radicals, algebraic expressions, expanding and factoring polynomials, linear functions, systems of linear equations, and right-angled trigonometry. In terms of polynomial functions, this course will have an emphasis on functions of degree one (linear).

  • Demonstrate algebraic reasoning and number sense through the study of exponents, fractions, integers, radicals and polynomial expressions;
  • Simplify and manipulate algebraic expressions; 
  • Solve linear equations and systems of equations; and, 
  • Apply trigonometric reasoning through the study of right-angled trigonometry.
