MTH 109 - College Algebra
Students successfully completing this class will be able to solve quadratic equations by factoring, completing the square, and using the quadratic formula. They will also be familiar with complex numbers and solving rational equations. College Algebra topics include: polynomial, rational, exponential, and logarithmic functions and graphs. Equations and inequalities are covered including solutions of systems of equations. Application problems build skills in problem solving. Students may take this course in lieu of but not in addition to regular Pre-Calculus. Students in this course are required to participate in the College Credit Plus program
MTH 112 - Trigonometry
This course is designed to follow MTH109 and replaces MTH110. Topics include both right angle and circle definitions, solving all types of triangles, trigonometric identities and equations, selected vectors and complex number problems, and the polar coordinate system. Students may take this course in lieu of but not in addition to regular Pre-Calculus. Students in this course are required to participate in the College Credit Plus program.
