Here are the top 5 things I learned in Math this year. The majority of the units I had to learn this year were pretty interesting and some of them were even a bit challenging but they were definitely a bit different from what I learnt last year in grade 10 and even grade 9. […]

Week 16 Blogpost – Pre-Calculus 11
This week in Pre-Calculus 11 we continued our trigonometry unit where we left off before the break. We went over two new concepts which was the sine and cosine law to find lengths and angles of non-right triangles. Before in Pre-Calculus 10, we would solve right triangles by using the three trigonometric ratios. This week, […]
Week 15 – Blogpost Pre-Calculus 11
This week we went over a plethora of things such as angles in standard position in all the quadrants, co-terminal angles, and exact trig ratios and special triangles. The majority of the stuff we learnt this week were new and concepts that I wasn’t very familiar with because they weren’t in the Math 10 curriculum […]
Week 14 – Pre-Calculus 11 Blogpost
This week in Pre-Calculus 11 we went over applications of rational equations which consisted of word problems, plus had the rational equations/expressions test, and we also started a new unit which was Trigonometry. For this week, I will be covering one type of word problem we went over, which was solving problems involving motion. We […]
Weekly Blogpost 13 – Pre-Calculus 11
This week in Pre-Calculus 11 we learnt how to add and subtract rational expressions with monomial, binomial or trinomial denominators. In general, adding and subtracting is more difficult than multiplying and dividing because in order to add or subtract the numbers, they must have a common denominator. In multiplying and dividing, it was easier to […]
Week 12 Blogpost-Pre-Calculus 11
This week in Pre-Calculus 11 we started a new unit which is rational expressions and equations. We first looked into equivalent rational expressions and determining the non-permissible values. Plus, simplifying, dividing/multiplying, and adding/subtracting rational expressions. We also had to review factoring again in order to simplify the rational expressions and find the domain values of […]
Week 11 Pre-Calculus Blogpost
This week in pre-calculus 11 I learnt how to solve linear and quadratic inequalities graphically. Linear and quadratic inequalities can be solved by graphing both of the equations or using algebra to find the solutions. What the signs mean: >: greater than <: less than ≤: less than or equal to ≥ : greater than […]
Week 10 – Pre-calculus 11
This week in pre-calculus 11 I learnt how to find out an equation of a quadratic function from the characteristics that have been given. For example, when I have the vertex and only a point given and I have to find out an equation that satisfies both of those two characteristics. Or, when I only […]
Week 9 – Pre-calculus 11
This week in pre-calculus 11 we had a midterm on the last 3 units in math and we also continued to learn about our fourth unit which goes into more detail of quadratic functions. In the last unit we learnt how to complete the square and now we can see why it’s very beneficial in […]
