Integrated Math II

Integrated Math II is the second course in the Common Core Integrated Mathematics Pathway. Students will learn to work with parabolic function through data analysis, algebraic manipulation, and  graphing.  Students will be expected to engage in real-world exercises that will challenge them.  As with all integrated coursework writing will form a considerable portion of this class.

The purpose of Integrated Math II is to highlight the quadratic expressions and functions, as well as, cursory mathematics and extensions of second-degree polynomials.  In this course students extend the rules of exponents to include rational exponents.  This demands, in some cases, the irrationals.  In solving quadratic equations, the need arises for complex numbers to provide the solutions we require.  Integrated II also introduces right triangle trigonometry and circles, both of which deal with terms of degree two.
