Pre-Calculus 30

Pre-Calculus 30 Course Description:

PreCalculus 30 covers probability, trigonometry, logarithms, algebra and a great deal of graphing. Use of graphing technology (calculator or computer) is strongly recommended.

The course is a preparation for taking Calculus 30 and is intended for students who want to challenge themselves to the highest level of math possible in high school. It is a very challenging course that is a good preparation for university courses and technology based SIAST courses. Content in this pathway was chosen to meet the needs of students interested in pursuing careers in science-related areas.

Heading to Calculus!!

Sometime before your first Calculus class, it would be a great idea to refresh yourself on some important PreCalculus skills found on the Calculus 30 page. Maybe near the end of summer when all this math knowledge has flown out of your brain!! See you in Calculus!
