Course Catalog

Humanities Mathematics 102 (CP)

Course Number: M421/M422
Initial Grade Level: 10

Humanities Mathematics 102 (CP) will be the second course in a four year series of courses that will integrate elementary algebra, geometry and probability to prepare students for subsequent math courses that incorporate additional math topics (i.e. advanced algebra, statistics, and trigonometry). Students in this pathway are leaning towards non-STEM college and career choices.

Students will learn to solve additional functions such as absolute value functions, piecewise functions, and inverse functions. Students will extend their understanding of algebra as they develop skills in manipulating polynomials and extend their understanding of functions into quadratics. Students will extend their understanding of geometry by studying logic and proofs, parallel and perpendicular lines, transformations, and congruent triangles. Students will also be introduced to probability as they study concepts such as samples, and independent/dependent conditions. Students will demonstrate understanding of standards through the use of traditional testing and multiple performance tasks. The traditional test will assess the students abilities to read, write, and solve algebraic problems with proficiency. The performance tasks will assess a student’s ability to apply the course standards to a real life inquiry.
