| Course Description |
This course builds on and expands the fundamental algebraic skills mastered in ACE Core Mathematics. The objective of the course is to teach students the necessary mathematical skills in preparation for technical/math-focused postsecondary college programs. After successful completion of the learning outcomes, students will be able to use their skills to solve applied problems involving linear/polynomial/rational/exponential expressions and equations, logarithmic functions, radical and complex numbers, trigonometry, measurement and geometry. The course will involve the use of both calculators and technology-specific software. This course meets the math requirement for many Ontario college certificate and diploma programs (not degree programs). Note that it is the responsibility of the student to research and verify college program admission requirements. |
