GRADE 10

This course forms part of the TOPS program and covers all of the curriculum encountered in the Grade 10 Academic Math course but programming provides advanced instruction and curricula that provides opportunity for early skill acquisition and an enriched learning experience overall.

This course enables students to broaden their understanding of relationships and extend their problem-solving and algebraic skills through investigation, the effective use of technology, and abstract reasoning. Students will explore quadratic relations and their applications; solve and apply linear systems; verify properties of geometric figures using analytic geometry; and investigate the trigonometry of right and acute triangles. Students will reason mathematically and communicate their thinking as they solve multi-step problems.
