Description
Mathematical contributions of various cultures provide the theme for this continuing journey into algebra. The first seven chapters provide thorough review of basic skills, including detailed studies of linear equations and functions, polynomials, factoring, quadratic equations and functions, systems of equations, and radicals, then progresses to topics such as complex numbers, rational expressions and equations, conic sections, trigonometry, exponents and logarithms, matrices, and probability. Students will need a graphing calculator.
The two-volume Algebra 2 Teacher’s Edition provides presentation suggestions, additional problems, common student errors, math journaling suggestions, graphing calculator tips, one-on-one activities, a detailed Lesson Plan Overview, and reduced student pages with answers and complete step-by-step solutions. The softcover, non-consumable Student Edition provides lesson exercises, expanded explanations with examples, cumulative reviews, and extended problem sets in three levels of difficulty to allow customized assignments. The non-reproducible Tests include printed chapter tests, quizzes, and exams that correlate with the material covered in the student text. A separate Tests Answer Key includes answers and complete step-by-step solutions to the test, quiz, and exam questions.
