When students complete Algebra 2, they will be familiar with linear, quadratic, polynomial, and trigonometric functions. Other topics covered include: probability, inequalities, matrices, logarithms, and sequences. Students will use graphing calculators to solve real-world problems and derive models.
Advanced Algebra Proficiency Targets
-
- 9.2.1 Understand the concept of function, and identify important features of functions and other relations using symbolic and graphical methods where appropriate.
- 9.2.2 Recognize linear, quadratic, exponential and other common functions in real-world and mathematical situations; represent these functions with tables, verbal descriptions, symbols and graphs; solve problems involving these functions, and explain results in the original context.
- 9.2.3 Generate equivalent algebraic expressions involving polynomials and radicals; use algebraic properties to evaluate expressions.
- 9.2.4 Represent real-world and mathematical situations using equations and inequalities involving linear, quadratic, exponential and nth root functions. Solve equations and inequalities symbolically and graphically. Interpret solutions in the original context.
