Precalculus (Standard or Honors) (College Trigonometry)

This online Precalculus course offered by The Potter's School caters to a variety of educational goals and requirements, serving as essential preparation for students planning to take Calculus in high school or college. The course provides in-depth study of various mathematical topics, such as trigonometry, functions (including quadratic, exponential, polynomial, logarithmic, and rational), conics, vectors, complex numbers, polar coordinates, and parametric equations. It also introduces infinite sequences and series, limits, and continuity of functions. The course curriculum aligns with College Board's AP Precalculus expectations but does not offer AP Precalculus as a separate course. Instead, students may take the Precalculus course to receive college credit as Trigonometry (Belhaven MAT 102, 3 credits) with the option of applying these credits to other colleges. The course curriculum includes standard and Honors level options, with the Honors level recommended for students planning to study Calculus. Live class attendance in the course may be reduced or waived depending on students' scheduling conflicts. This course has CA A-G approval.
