Course Description: This course enables students to consolidate their understanding

of linear relations and extend their problem-solving and algebraic skills through
investigation, the effective use of technology, and hands-on activities. Students will
develop and graph equations in analytic geometry; solve and apply linear systems, using
real-life examples; and explore and interpret graphs of quadratic relations. Students will
investigate similar triangles, the trigonometry of right triangles, and the measurement of
three-dimensional gures. Students will consolidate their mathematical skills as they
solve problems and communicate their thinking.

Homework will be assigned on a daily basis. Completion of
homework is essential for success in this course.
If you miss a test without a valid reason or due to suspension,
a mark of zero will be assigned.
Students are expected to submit all assignments within the
time frame specified by the teacher. Teachers will consider
extenuating circumstances when assignments are late. If an
assignment is late, 10% may be deducted per school day, up
to a maximum of 50%. Once assignments have been
returned to students, any late submissions may receive a
mark of zero.
Regular attendance and punctuality are essential components
of this course. If you are absent, it is your responsibility to
get the notes and/or assignments from another student.
Communication with your teacher upon return to class is
essential. An assessment missed due to absence must be
completed on the first day returned following the absence.
