This course is generally considered to be significantly easier than [[Geometry H]], so if you got at least a B in that course, you will be fine in Trig H. If you are familiar with the content, you can even consider attempting to skip this course, although the process for doing so is obscure and difficult. If you are levelling up from [[Geometry]], you should consider whether you can handle the fast pace of Trig H, as it moves at the same pace as Geo H even though its content is less difficult.

Algebra 2 + Trig H (often referred to as simply Trig H) is a math class typically taken by sophomores, covering content that people are often familiar with. It is therefore the only math class that can be skipped. Most students came from Geometry H, although some can also come from Geometry.

Course catalog description

This course covers content similar to Alg2/TrigA but with a greater emphasis on proof and problem solving. In each unit, students are expected to apply their understanding of the content to solve problems that are similar but not identical to problems solved in class. Additional content includes an in-depth study of conic sections, as well as arithmetic and geometric sequences and series, law of sines and cosines, and vectors.

  • Prerequisite: Successful completion of an introductory Algebra course and a Geometry course; open to grades
  • and 10
  • Students self-report spending an average of 2.5 hours a week outside of school on this course
  • District SLOs Addressed in this Course: 1, 2, 5, 6, 7
  • This is an honors course

  1. Functions
  2. Equation-Solving
  3. Polynomials

Should I sign up for this course?

This course is generally considered to be significantly easier than Geometry H, so if you got at least a B in that course, you will be fine in Trig H. If you are familiar with the content, you can even consider attempting to skip this course, although the process for doing so is obscure and difficult. If you are levelling up from Geometry, you should consider whether you can handle the fast pace of Trig H, as it moves at the same pace as Geo H even though its content is less difficult.
