Is any of these topics covered by the SAT Math IIC?

<p>Hi there.</p>

<p>I went to school in Germany and I was taking an advanced course of math
in the last two years of my school career. I wonder if some of our topics are relevant
for the SAT II Math II:</p>

<p>1) integrals (I haven't seen them mentioned at all yet):
I would be delighted if integrals are not covered by the SAT IIC since it's a bunch of work to refresh everything from integration by parts until integration by substitution.</p>

<p>2) Rotating functions around the x or y axis and determining the resulting volume?</p>

<p>3) Matrices:
Do you need to know more about them than just determining the determinants of square matrices?
If not do you have to work with matrices in application-oriented word problems?
Matrices are not covered by sparknotes...</p>

<p>4) Irrational functions and polynomial long division?</p>

<p>Thanks for your help!</p>

2

<p>1) No
2) No
3) Nothing more than finding a determinant
4) Maybe 1 or 2 questions on long division, definitely nothing on irrational functions.</p>

<p>You’re my hero, 314159265.
Thanks so much for your help, also on my other post!</p>

<p>You should know how to find a determinant and maybe transpose (the former you can do with a calculator easily) </p>

<p>Also, if I remember correctly, there was a question about de moivre’s theorem.</p>

<p>Thanks GreedIsGood.</p>

<p>What exactly do you mean by transpose matrices?</p>

<p>And do you have a link to that moivre’s theorem? Never heard of that!</p>

<p>DeMoivre’s Theorem is for either powers or roots of a complex number (I don’t quite remember): [Trigonometry:</a> De Moivre’s Theorem - CliffsNotes](<a href=“http://www.cliffsnotes.com/study_guide/De-Moivres-Theorem.topicArticleId-11658,articleId-11634.html]Trigonometry:”>http://www.cliffsnotes.com/study_guide/De-Moivres-Theorem.topicArticleId-11658,articleId-11634.html)</p>

<p>What exactly do I need to know about complex numbers?
I never learned anything about it except determining that (-2)^.5 is a complex number…</p>
