MFM2P Foundations of Mathematics – Grade 10 (Applied)
PREREQUISITE: Grade 9 Mathematics, Academic or Applied
GRADE: 10 (Applied)
AVAILABILITY: Blyth Academy Online
THE ONTARIO CURRICULUM: Mathematics
MFM2P online enables students to consolidate their understanding of linear relations and extend their problem-solving and algebraic skills through investigation, the effective use of technology, and hands-on activities. Students will develop and graph equations in analytic geometry; solve and apply linear systems, using real-life examples; and explore and interpret graphs of quadratic relations. Students will investigate similar triangles, the trigonometry of right triangles, and the measurement of three-dimensional figures. Students will consolidate their mathematical skills as they solve problems and communicate their thinking.
UNIT ONE
Measurements and Introduction to Trigonometry
Essential Question: How can we make measurements in Trigonometry?
- In this unit, students will learn imperial measurement and conversions between different measurement systems. Students will also be introduced to the topic of similar triangles. Properties of right angle triangle, Pythagorean theorem, and trigonometric ratios will be learned by the end of this unit.
UNIT TWO
Linear Relations, Equations, and Systems
Essential Question: How can we investigate rate of change in understanding and graphing linear equations?
- In this unit, students will begin investigating slope as the rate of change. They will also learn about Linear equations and graphs. They will cover the topic of solving Linear equations. The method of substitution and elimination will be learned by the end of this unit.
UNIT THREE
Quadratic Relations and Expressions
Essential Question: How do we solve and interpret Quadratic Relations/Expressions?
- In this unit, students will discover Quadratic relations. Students will also learn to solve problems involving quadratic relations. Common factoring and difference of square will also be covered by the end of this unit.
CULMINATING PROJECT
10% of Final Grade
- This project is one of the final evaluations of MFM2P online. This project will require students to use all that they have learned throughout the course. This project will be worth 10% of the final grade.
