Mathematics 9

In Math 9, students extend their understanding of surface area and volume that they learned in Math 8, and get introduced to polynomial expressions, which foster many of the life-long algebra and arithmetic skills that will lead to continued success in high-school and post-secondary mathematics studies. 

Mathematics -1  (10C, 20-1, 30-1) (5 Credits)

Do you want to study mathematics or sciences at a university, college, or technical institute and go on to a related career? This route is for students who plan on entering post-secondary programs such as engineering, mathematics, sciences, some business studies, or other programs that require advanced math skills. This sequence is a co-requisite for Mathematics 31 and may be required for post-secondary calculus courses.

Mathematics 31 (Calculus) (5 credits)

Mathematics 31 emphasizes the theoretical and practical development of topics in the algebra of functions, trigonometry, differential calculus and integral calculus up to a standard acceptable for entry into all first-year programs in mathematics, science, engineering and business. The course is designed to bridge the gap between the Mathematics 10-20-30 course sequence and the calculus course sequences offered by post-secondary institutions.

Mathematics -2  (10C, 20-2, 30-2) (5 Credits)

Do you want to attend a university, college, or technical institute after high school, but do not need calculus skills? This route is for students who plan on studying at the post-secondary level in diverse fields, including arts programs, some engineering technologies, medical technologies, and some apprenticeship programs. This path will fulfill most students’ needs. Mathematics -2 is designed with a great deal of flexibility, so that the student may switch sequences in Grade 11 or 12 if his or her interests change.

Mathematics -3  (10-3, 20-3, 30-3) (5 Credits)

Are you interested in learning the mathematics needed to enter most trades or will you be entering the work force      after high school? This route is for students who plan to apprentice in a trade or enter the work force directly after high school. It is designed to meet the entrance requirements for apprentices in most trades programs.
