Mathematical Fundamentals A and B will comprise four modules each. All eight modules will be taught each semester, but students are allowed to combine any four modules to form a single semester of either Mathematical Fundamentals A or Mathematical fundamentals B, subject to the dependency of modules as set by the topic coordinator.
Module 1. Equations of straight lines, linear inequalities, absolute value.
Module 2. Second degree polynomials and their graphs, factoring, completing the square, solving quadratic equations.
Module 3. Trigonometry of right angle triangles, solutions to simple trigonometric equations.
Module 4. Unit Circle, angle addition formulas, double and half angle formulas, trigonometric identities, sine and cosine as function, graphs of trigonometric equations.
Module 5. Functions, graphs, asymptotes, derivatives and integrals of polynomials, sine and cosine.
Module 6. Negative and fractional exponents, logarithms, graphs of logs and exponential functions, derivatives and integrals of exponential functions.
Module 7. Matrices, solutions to systems of equations, multiplication of matrices.
Module 8. Counting, permutations, combinations, sets, binomial theorem, elementary probability.
