Course description: Foerster Algebra 2 will pick up where we left off in Foerster Algebra 1 with solving complex algebraic equations, complex fractions, and exploring rational as well as irrational numbers. Students will also begin their exploration of trigonometric functions, as well as using the geometry that they have learned to find lengths and measures of angles. Students will continue with the ideas of solving for a variable, but now use vector analysis to go along with it. This is a great next step after Algebra 1, and will lead into geometry smoothly.
