Additionally, connections are made throughout the Precalculus course to calculus, art, history, and a variety of other fields related to mathematics. Within each Precalculus lesson, students are supplied with a post-study Checkup activity that provides them the opportunity to hone their computational skills in a low-stakes problem set before moving on to formal assessment.

The second semester covers trigonometric ratios and functions inverse trigonometric functions applications of trigonometry, including vectors and laws of cosine and sine polar functions and notation and arithmetic of complex numbers. The first semester includes linear, quadratic, exponential, logarithmic, radical, polynomial, and rational functions systems of equations and conic sections. The course focuses on the mastery of critical skills and exposure to new skills necessary for success in subsequent math courses.

Precalculus Honors is a comprehensive course that weaves together previous study of algebra, geometry, and functions into a preparatory course for calculus.
