This course combines many of the trigonometric, geometric, and algebraic techniques needed to prepare students for the study of calculus and other advanced courses. The course brings a measure of closure to some topics first brought up in earlier courses, such as Integrated Math II. The functional viewpoint is emphasized in this course. Key concepts include mathematical induction, the roots of polynomials, conic sections, and limits. The trigonometry involves using the techniques previously learned from the study of algebra and geometry. Further study in trigonometric functions will also include the ability to prove basic identities.
