MATH 101: Trigonometry for Calculus

Course Description

Trigonometry for Calculus (Math 101) is a semester-long course designed for students who plan on pursuing further science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) coursework that requires a thorough knowledge of functions and algebraic reasoning. This course is the second in a two-course sequence (together with Math 100) which prepares students for entry into Calculus I (Math 115). Math 101 gives a strong foundation in functions and their behavior by using multiple representations and explicit covariational reasoning to investigate and explore quantities, their relationships, and how these relationships change. Students use their knowledge of functions to model and solve problems using exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric functions and their properties. Students can receive credit for only one ofMATH 101andMATH 105. (F, W).
