Geometry 1 Geometric concepts covered include points, lines, planes, conditional statements, angles, symbols, triangles and proof writing. Tools, techniques and procedures covered include algebraic properties, deductive reasoning, inductive reasoning, definitions, theorems and postulates. Prerequisite(s): Complete MATHHS-717. MATHHS-722 Credits: 3 Geometry 2 Geometric concepts covered include volume and surface area of three-dimensional shapes; circles, chords, arcs and tangents; and right triangle trigonometry. Tools, techniques and procedures covered include algebraic properties, deductive reasoning, inductive reasoning, definitions, theorems and postulates. MATHHS-745 Credits: 3 Advanced Algebra 1A This course is equivalent to the first semester of second-year algebra. The course begins with the graphing of lines. Topics include graphing of linear inequalities in two variables; solving linear systems (two lines) using the graphic, elimination and substitution methods; exploring other methods of solving equations; and the study of roots and radicals. MATHHS-755 Credits: 3 Advanced Algebra 1B This course is equivalent to the second semester of the second year of algebra. Topics include counting techniques and probability, a study of quadratics (the parabola, circle, ellipse, and hyperbola), the solution of three equation systems of lines and of nonlinear systems, and the study of matrices, determinants, and exponential and logarithmic functions. MATHEMATICS POST HIGH SCHOOL MATHPH-707 Credits: 3 Financial Literacy This course is designed to help you with everyday consumer math skills — math you should and do use all the time. You will learn a wide variety of personal and business math skills. MATHPH-716 Credits: 3 Algebra 1A This course has a brief review of fractions and decimals. The main course consists of the basic operations with real numbers, evaluating algebraic expressions, solving equations, and inequalities with one variable, and operations with algebraic expressions. MATHPH-717 Credits: 3 Algebra 1B This course begins with factoring and the solution of quadratic equations by factoring. It also includes rational expressions, ratio and proportion, and concludes with operations with algebraic expressions involving fractions. Prerequisite(s): Complete MATHHS-716 or MATHPH-716.

Geometry 2 Geometry 1 is extended to include similar polygons, right triangles, circles, construction and logic. Sets that describe areas and volumes, as well as the formulas for such sets, are presented.
