Algebra 1P
Algebra 9P
Algebra 1A

UC, CSU
Description: Required for all incoming 9th graders. Algebra is the study of properties of the real number system which leads to the solution of equations and inequalities. Emphasis is placed on linear and quadratic equations, graphing, exponents, radicals, polynomial functions, rational functions, problem-solving techniques, and applications. Algebra 1A is the first half of a two year Algebra sequence.

Geometry P

UC, CSU
Prerequisites: Algebra 1 or teacher recommendation.
Description: Course introduces geometric concepts in a structured format. Proof of theorems is based on undefined terms, definitions, postulates and other theorems. Topics for plane and solid geometry will include perpendicularity, inequalities, congruence, similarity, parallelism, circles, polygons, areas of polygonal regions, volumes of solids, and coordinate geometry. An introduction to trigonometric rations and transformational geometry is provided. Problem-solving is incorporated in the course.

Intermediate Algebra P

UC, CSU
Prerequisites: Grade of C or better in Algebra 1 and Geometry or recommendation.
Description: An extension of first-year algebra with emphasis on functions and properties of number systems. Topics covered include linear functions and their graphs, system of linear equations and inequalities, polynomials and polynomial functions, introduction to probability, exponential and logarithmic functions, quadratic functions and conic sections. It prepares students for advanced mathematics courses.

Advanced Algebra and Trigonometry P

UC, CSU
Prerequisites: A grade of C or better in Geometry and/or Intermediate Algebra or recommendation.
Description: Course is an extension of first-year algebra. Algebra and Trigonometry are both presented as a study of specific classes of functions and their graphs. Topics include linear, quadratic, exponential, logarithmic, rational irrational and trigonometric functions. Complex numbers, conic sections and sequences and series are also covered.
