Recommended Prerequisite: Pre-Calculus 11, with a grade of B or higher.

Pre-Calculus 12 is required for entry into post-secondary studies in economics, engineering, mathematics and science. It is best suited for mathematically capable, hard-working students and it will require a significant amount of work outside of class each day (30-60 minutes per night). Students must master many problem-solving skills and amass a large repertoire of problems in order to be successful in Calculus.

This course is required to be completed BEFORE taking Calculus 12. It cannot be taken concurrently. For all Esquimalt High Math Pathways, go to bit.ly/esqmathpathways.

This course continues to build on algebraic skills learned in previous courses and extends them into the following topics: Transformations; Polynomial Functions, Radical and Rational Functions, Exponential & Logarithmic Functions; Trigonometric Functions; Trigonometric Equations & Identities; Sequences & Series; and Conics.
