Diploma Path | -1 and -2 Course Sequences
Math 10C
involves topics such as measurement, powers, irrational numbers, functions and
relations, and trigonometry
focuses on algebraic skills and reasoning
provides several choices after you successfully complete it and move to 20-level
courses
Math 20-1, 30-1
investigate the relationships between relations and functions, and engage in
trigonometric topics
develop abstract reasoning and visualization in a problem-solving environment
prepare you for a entrance requirements for post-secondary institutions vary; be sure to
check their websites
Math 20-2, 30-2
focus on investigation into logical reasoning, relations and functions, and trigonometry
develop problem-solving, reasoning and communication in many ways, including a selfselected research project on a topic of interest
prepare for a post-secondary program that does not require calculus (entrance
requirements for post-secondary institutions vary; be sure to check their websites)
Post-secondary Path | Requiring Calculus
Math 31
prerequisite or co-requisite: Math 30-1
introduces skills and topics in calculus
investigates a variety of topics; focuses on the limit of a function and looks at the
relationship between differentiation and integration
Diploma Path | -3 at the 20-level or higher
Certificate of High School Achievement Path | -3 at the 10-level
Math 10-3, 20-3, 30-3
engage in measurement skills, geometry, personal and business finances, and statistics
and probability
emphasize practical math found in day-to-day activities
prepare you for entry into some apprenticeship programs, trades or the workforce after
high school completion
Certificate of High School Achievement Path | -4 Course Sequence
Math 10-4, 20-4
engage in measurement skills, number concepts and probability as they would be used
in the workplace
develop problem-solving and reasoning skills in a team environment
prepare you for the workplace or further training that may not involve post-secondary
education
