Self-Paced Study in Precalculus X32-S

X32-S (1-4 semester units)

This course covers polynomials, exponential and logarithmic functions, trigonometric functions, polar coordinates, the binomial theorem, and sequences and series.

Important Note: To understand how a self-paced mathematics course works, you should first read the section on Self-Paced Mathematics Course Structure and Policies.

This course is designed for individuals who want to take Analytic Geometry and Calculus, or Calculus, but lack the prerequisites, or whose mathematical skills are not current. It covers polynomials, exponential and logarithmic functions, trigonometric functions, polar coordinates, the binomial theorem, and sequences and series.

Math 32-S covers the same material as the lecture-style Math 32, and uses the same text. The only difference is in the method of instruction. In Math 32-S, there are no lectures; however, the individual pacing allows the student greater flexibility. Students work independently and come to class when they have questions or are ready to be tested.

Math 32-S is intended for students in mathematics, engineering and mathematical economics.

It covers all prerequisites for Math 1A and Math 16A.
