| MAC 1105 – College Algebra | Credit 3 |
|---|
| Prerequisites: Two years of high school algebra and MAT 1033 or a satisfactory score on the mathematics portion of the ACT/SAT, or instructor approval |
| This course provides students an opportunity to gain algebraic knowledge needed in many different fields such as engineering, business, education, science, computer technology, and mathematics. Graphical, numerical, symbolic, and verbal methods support the study of functions and their corresponding equations and inequalities. Students will study linear, quadratic, rational, exponential, logarithmic, inverse, composite, radical, and absolute value functions; systems of equations and inequalities modeling applied problems; and curve fitting techniques. There will be extensive use of graphing calculators. |

|---|
| Prerequisite: MAC 1105 or suitable score on ACT/SAT |
| Introduction to the elementary trigonometric functions using the functional approach, simple identities, identities using the summation, half arc, and double arc formulas, inverse and composite functions, sketching of the elementary functions emphasizing phase shift, period, and amplitude, and the solution of right and obtuse angles. |
| MAC 1140 – Pre-Calculus Algebra | Credit 4 |
|---|
