Grade: 10
Level: Academic
Prerequisite: MPM1D
This course enables students to broaden their understanding of relationships and extend their problem-solving and algebraic skills through investigation, the effective use of technology, and abstract reasoning. Students will explore quadratic relations and their applications; solve and apply linear systems; verify properties of geometric figures using analytic geometry; and investigate the trigonometry of right and acute triangles. Students will reason mathematically and communicate their thinking as they solve multi-step problems.
The textbook Principles of Mathematics 10 by McGraw-Hill Ryerson is available for sign-out when necessary, but most material will be made available via on-line notes and handouts.
