Math 10 Courses - Students and parents are encouraged to research the admission requirements for post-secondary programs of study as requirements vary by institution and by program within the institution.

Math Pathways are designed to guide students into the appropriate stream of math based on interests and goals.
Math 10
Math 10
There are two streams available for Math 10 students:
If a student has not yet decided on a career path and has achieved 60% minimum in Math 9, Foundations/Pre-Calculus 10 is recommended as it leaves the most options available.
All pathways provide students with mathematical understandings and critical thinking skills. When choosing a pathway, students should consider their current interests and future plans. It is not always possible to switch pathways without backtracking and learning key concepts so it is important to choose carefully with education and career goals in mind.
Foundations and Pre-Calculus 10
Foundations and Pre-Calculus 10
MFMP-10
4 credits
Prerequisite: Math 9 with a final mark of PRF (Proficient) or DEV (Developing) with recommendation.
This course is designed to provide students with the mathematical
understandings and critical-thinking skills identified for post secondary studies in programs that may require the study of theoretical calculus. Topics covered are powers, polynomials and trinomial factoring, linear relations and equations, interpreting graphs, systems of linear equations, trigonometry, arithmetic sequences, and financial literacy.
Foundations pathway: designed to prepare students for university to programs that do not require theoretical calculus.
Future Plans may include social sciences, fine arts, humanities, some trades.*
Pre-Calculus pathway: designed to prepare students for university programs that require the study of theoretical calculus.
Future Plans may include Science, health fields, engineering, commerce, some trades.*
Workplace Math 10
Workplace Math 10
MWPM-10
4 credits
Prerequisite: Math 9.
This course is designed to provide students with the mathematical
understandings and critical-thinking skills identified for entry into the majority of trades and for direct entry into the work force. Topics covered: metric & imperial system; linear measurement; perimeter and area; unit pricing and currency exchange; income; Pythagorean theorem; spatial reasoning; similar polygons; trigonometry; parallel and perpendicular lines/angles; and algebra.
Workplace pathway: designed to prepare students with the mathematical knowledge and critical-thinking skills needed for entry into the majority of trades, via a technical college or trade school, as well as for direct entry into the workforce.
Future Plans may include: technical college, some trades* and direct entry into workforce.
*Certain trades require additional theoretical education in mathmatics and may require students to take the Foundations/Pre-Calculus pathway. Check with a school counselor or the TNT coordinator for details regarding which math is required for a particular trade.
