Algebra I Geometry 2 Additional Mathematics Credits

The selection of the appropriate mathematics course for each student should be based on individual needs and educational goals. Students seeking to qualify for admission to Maryland colleges and universities must have credits in at least algebra , geometry, and algebra II. Maryland identified the algebra/data analysis as the measure of student achievement in mathematics to meet the federal “No Child Left Behind” Act and accountability target for Maryland State Assessments (MSA).

17020 ALGEBRA/DATA ANALYSIS (1.0 credit)

This course covers the study of (1) the basic language of algebra, equations, inequalities, relations, and functions, and (2) data analysis and probability. The course prepares students for Maryland High School Assessment for algebra I, which is required for graduation. This course fulfills the Maryland graduation requirement for algebra. This course does not prepare a student for Algebra II. (1 algebra credit)

17035 ALGEBRA I Common Core (1.0 credit)

This course covers the study of (1) the basic language of algebra, equations, inequalities, relations, and functions. (1 algebra credit)

17045 GEOMETRY (1.0 credit) Common Core

This course covers study of points, lines, planes, angles, proofs, two- and three-dimensional figures, congruence, similarity, right triangle trigonometry, and transformations. The use of computer software enhances teaching in this course. Prerequisite: Algebra I.

(1 geometry credit)

17060 ALGEBRA II (1.0 credit)

This course includes a study of the language of algebra, equations, inequalities, matrices, radicals, quadratics, polynomials, relations, functions, and data analysis. The use of a graphing calculator is essential to completion of this course. Prerequisite: Algebra I, Geometry

17065 ALGEBRA II (1.0 credit) Common Core

This course includes a study of the language of algebra, equations, inequalities, matrices, radicals, quadratics, polynomials, relations, functions, and data analysis. The use of a graphing calculator is essential to completion of this course. Prerequisite: Algebra I, Geometry

17098 CONSUMER FINANCE (11-12) (1.0 credit)

This course is based on national standards in mathematics, consumer finance, and technology and is designed as part of the transition from high school into the adult world and living independently. Through the use of the decision-making process, active learning, and reflection, students will gain skills in mathematics to increase their knowledge in the areas of income, money management, consumer rights and responsibilities, spending, credit, savings and investing.

17111 ALGEBRA III (1.0 credit)

This course is designed for students whose career or college plans are not in the fields of mathematics or science. This course continues the advanced study of algebra and covers functions, variations, quadratics, analytic geometry (circles, ellipses, parabolas, and hyperbolas). Prerequisites: Algebra II and Geometry.

41 17120 TRIGONOMETRY (1.0 credit) Honors

Trigonometry involves the study of angles, the six trigonometric functions, right triangle trigonometry, trigonometric identities, applications, exponential and logarithmic functions, and graphing techniques of sinusoidal waves. Instruction emphasizes a thorough understanding of trigonometry, including study of both degree measures and radian measures. The course is designed for students whose career or college plans include further study of mathematics but do not rely primarily on math. Prerequisites: Algebra II or Algebra III and Geometry.

17101 PRE-CALCULUS (1.0 credit) Honors

This course, designed for students who intend to pursue careers in mathematics and engineering, focuses on trigonometry but also covers some topics from Algebra III and introduces topics that prepare students for calculus. Trigonometry topics include the study of angles, the six trigonometric functions, right triangle trigonometry, trigonometric identities, applications, exponential and logarithmic functions, graphing techniques of sinusoidal waves, and analytic geometry. (Teacher and/or school counselors recommendation is advised for enrollment in this course.) Prerequisites: Algebra II or Algebra III and Geometry.

17140 CALCULUS (1.0 credit) Honors

This is a course designed for advanced mathematics students pursuing careers in mathematics and engineering. Calculus is the mathematics of change. This course will have great depth and will move the students individually and collectively at a rapid pace. At the end of this students will not be prepared for the AP Calculus test.

Prerequisites: Pre-Calculus

17180 CALCULUS AB (1.0 credit) Advanced Placement

This course is designed for advanced mathematics students pursuing careers in mathematics and engineering and to allow capable students to experience the appropriate curriculum material, instruction, and practice to obtain college credits for calculus through the Advanced Placement Program. The course prepares students to take the Advanced Placement Calculus exam, and students who enroll in this course are required to take the test. A fee is required to take this exam. All topics on the College Board Outline for Calculus will have been appropriately experienced to promote maximum success. Topics will include limits, differentiation, applications of differentiation, applications of curve sketching, investigations of spherical functions, application of integration, and techniques of antidifferentiation. Prerequisite: Pre-Calculus

17190 STATISTICS AND PROBABILITY (1.0 credit)

Statistics and Probability is the study of various ways of analyzing and displaying data. This course will study such topics as mode, median and mean; random samples and probability; binomial and normal distributions; estimating with large and small samples and using chi square distributions. Prerequisite: Algebra II

17195 STATISTICS (1.0 credit) Advanced Placement

AP Statistics introduces students to the major concepts and tools for collecting, analyzing and drawing conclusions from data. Students are exposed to four broad conceptual themes: exploring data: describing patterns and departures from patterns; sampling and experimentation: planning and conducting a study; anticipating patterns: exploring random phenomena using probability and simulation; and statistical inference: estimating population parameters and testing hypotheses. Students who successfully complete the course and exam may receive credit, advanced placement or both for a one-semester introductory college statistics course.The course prepares students to take the Advanced Placement

Statistics exam, and students who enroll in this course are required to take the test. A fee is required to take this exam.
