M35 Algebra 1 Advanced
Algebra 1 Advanced is an in-depth study of algebraic symbolism, systems of equations, graphing, problem-solving, and probability and statistics. The students will build upon their previous knowledge to further understand the characteristics and representations of various functions and relations, including first degree equations and inequalities, polynomials, exponential and radical expressions, quadratic equations complex numbers, and rational algebraic expressions. This course is designed for highly motivated and mathematically talented students.
M43 Advanced Geometry
Advanced Geometry presents a thorough study of the structure of the postulation system and the development of formal synthetic proof with an emphasis on logic. It treats the topic of congruence, parallelism, perpendicularity, properties of polygons, similarity, symmetry, transformations, Venn diagrams, right triangle trigonometry, and the relationships of circles, spheres, lines and planes. In addition, the maintenance of algebraic skills will be emphasized and topics from probability and statistics will be introduced.
