PREREQUISITE: A MINIMUM OF C- IN IMP 3

Students learn circular trigonometry and some physics in High Dive, as they work to design a daring circus act.  The World of Functions integrates many themes from the previous four years in a more formal look at the concept of function.  The next unit is Pennant Fever, in which students learn about combinatorics and the binomial probability distribution, baseball and ice cream.  The POW’s in year 4 are especially challenging.  Matrices, trigonometry, polar and rectangular coordinates, coordinate and projective geometry and programming are all combined as students create 3D animations on graphing calculators in the unit, As the Cube Turns.

Possible Next Courses:  Calculus (Honors, AB, or BC), Introduction to Statistics 1 & 2
