MFM 2P1: FOUNDATIONS OF MATHEMATICS, APPLIED, GRADE 10

Description:

This course 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.

Overall Expectations

Measurement & Trigonometry

  • use their knowledge of ratio and proportion to investigate similar triangles and solve problems related to similarity;
  • solve problems involving right triangles, using the primary trigonometric ratios and the Pythagorean theorem;
  • solve problems involving the surface areas and volumes of three-dimensional figures, and use the imperial and metric systems of measurement.

Modelling Linear Relations

  • manipulate and solve algebraic equations, as needed to solve problems;
  • graph a line and write the equation of a line from given information;
  • solve systems of two linear equations, and solve related problems that arise from realistic situations.

Quadratic Relations

  • manipulate algebraic expressions, as needed to understand quadratic relations;
  • identify characteristics of quadratic relations;
  • solve problems by interpreting graphs of quadratic relations.
