Course summary

Mathematics, as a study of patterns, both practical and abstract, involves analytical thought, logical reasoning, problem-solving, skills, and precise communication. Carl Friedrich Gauss (1777-1855), one of the greatest mathematicians ever to have lived, had this to say: “Mathematics is the queen of sciences and number theory is the queen of mathematics. She often condescends to render service to astronomy and other natural sciences, but in all relations she is entitled to the first rank.” Few other subjects can claim such a rich history, breadth or measure of development over the last two thousand years, and Mathematics is surely alone in being able to provide such complete precision and total certainty. Students will study: • Integration • Differentiation • Trigonometry • Statistical Distributions • Functions • Graphical Calculator skills
