PreCalc during summer break.

<p>I plan on taking precalculus before sophomore year starts. I plan on taking it through keystone online high school. I am wondering if 12 weeks is an adequate amount of time to complete this course, and will I be prepared enough to move on to calculus? Below is everything I will be learning throughout the course. </p>

<p>• Angles and Angle Measures</p>

<p>• Right Triangles</p>

<p>• Six Trigonometric Ratios</p>

<p>• Special Right Triangles</p>

<p>• Unit Circle</p>

<p>Graphing Trigonometric Functions</p>

<p>• Graphs of the Six Trigonometric Functions</p>

<p>• Graphs of Inverse Trigonometric Relations</p>

<p>Trigonometric Laws and Identifies</p>

<p>• Law of Sines</p>

<p>• Law of Cosines</p>

<p>• Trigonometric Identities</p>

<p>Sequence and Series</p>

<p>• Arithmetic Sequences and Series</p>

<p>• Geometric Sequences and Series</p>

<p>• Infinite Sequences and Series</p>

<p>• Limit</p>

<p>I took Pre Calc in the summer last year. All we did was review trig. I was put n Pre Calc again anyway because my school decided not to offer Calculus.</p>

<p>You can totally do it</p>

<p>As others have said, it’s completely achievable to learn precalc in 12 weeks, especially if you have some extra free time during the summer. I found precalc to be basically a rehashing of alg2+trig, with some new topics. Go for it!!</p>

<p>Thanks for the input everyone. I am totally going to do.</p>
