Algebra 2
High School
Mathematics
Course Description:
In Algebra II, students build on their work with linear, quadratic, and exponential functions to include an understanding of logarithmic, polynomial, rational, and radical functions. In this course, students will relate arithmetic of rational expressions to arithmetic of rational numbers; expand understandings of functions and graphing to include trigonometric functions; synthesize and generalize functions and extend understanding of exponential functions to logarithmic functions; and relate data display and summary statistics to probability and explore a variety of data collection methods.
