This course assumes competency in fundamental algebra skills. The curriculum is aligned to the NJSLS for
Mathematics. In alignment to the content and practice standards, Algebra 2 students will extend their
knowledge of mathematics as they learn linear and quadratic equations, functions and graphs, the real
and complex number systems, polynomials, radical, exponential and logarithmic functions, inferential
statistics and series and sequences. Techniques of graphing functions are included and the course
provides experience in problem solving with the use of technology. Students use functions to model real
world applications and their knowledge of their properties to explain the world around them. They will
summarize, represent and interpret data to make inferences and justify conclusions. Students will use
numerical, graphical, and algebraic models to solve problems. This course will prepare students for
Trigonometry/Pre-Calculus and other advanced courses in mathematics.
