MAP4C1 OUTLINE
Grade 12 - Foundations for College Mathematics
College Heights Secondary School
OVERALL EXPECTATIONS
GEOMETRY AND TRIGONOMETRY
By the end of this course, students will:
• solve problems involving measurement and geometry and arising from real-world applications;
• explain the significance of optimal dimensions in real-world applications, and determine optimal dimensions
of two-dimensional shapes and three-dimensional figures;
• solve problems using primary trigonometric ratios of acute and obtuse angles, the sine law, and the cosine law,
including problems arising from real-world applications, and describe applications of trigonometry in various
occupations.
MATHEMATICAL MODELS
By the end of this course, students will:
• evaluate powers with rational exponents, simplify algebraic expressions involving exponents, and solve
problems involving exponential equations graphically and using common bases;
• describe trends based on the interpretation of graphs, compare graphs using initial conditions and rates of
change, and solve problems by modelling relationships graphically and algebraically;
• make connections between formulas and linear, quadratic, and exponential relations, solve problems using
formulas arising from real-world applications, and describe applications of mathematical modelling in various
occupations.
PERSONAL FINANCE
By the end of this course, students will:
• demonstrate an understanding of annuities, including mortgages, and solve related problems using technology;
• gather, interpret, and compare information about owning or renting accommodation, and solve problems
involving the associated costs;
• design, justify, and adjust budgets for individuals and families described in case studies, and describe
applications of the mathematics of personal finance.
DATA MANAGEMENT
By the end of this course, students will:
• collect, analyse, and summarize two-variable data using a variety of tools and strategies, and interpret and
draw conclusions from the data;
• demonstrate an understanding of the applications of data management used by the media and the advertising
industry and in various occupations.
