Algebra A/B<br />
THIS COURSE WILL give students the opportunity to hone their algebra,<br />
geometry, and data analysis skills while learning the ins-and-outs of<br />
personal finance. The course counts as one of the four required math<br />
credits for graduation at Rio Rancho Public Schools. It also incorporates<br />
into the curriculum “Making Money Work”, a twelve-week college course<br />
offered through Central New Mexico Community College (CNM). All<br />
instruction will take place during the student’s normal math class period at<br />
school. The teacher will work in conjunction with a CNM professor to<br />
facilitate the course on-line. All students successfully completing and<br />
passing the course will receive an additional full credit (beyond the math<br />
credit they will receive for passing Financial Algebra) which will count as an<br />
elective credit. Furthermore the students will receive an additional three<br />
college credits through CNM. Passing “Making Money Work” will also<br />
satisfy the State’s distance learning requirement for graduation.<br />
There is no cost to the student for the CNM course.<br />

20344123 Geometry A/B<br />
THIS COURSE WILL provide instruction on the topics of inductive and<br />
deductive reasoning through construction and measurement. Students<br />
considering AP Calculus in the future should take Pre AP Geometry.<br />
STUDENTS WILL develop geometric vocabulary, definitions, and theorems<br />
in proofs as applied to inter-relationships between lines, planes, polygons,<br />
circles, and polyhedrons. They will learn the basic concepts involving<br />
congruence and similarities between shapes, primarily triangles,<br />
quadrilaterals and circles. Students will learn geometric formulas and how<br />
to use and/or apply them in real world situations. They will be introduced to<br />
trigonometric identities and basic right triangle relationships of sine, cosine<br />
and tangent functions.<br />
