Ce cours poursuit l’étude des fonctions en introduisant les fonctions exponentielles et les fonctions trigonométriques dont l’élève se sert pour résoudre des problèmes reliés aux triangles rectangles ou obliques.
Courses Type: University Preparation
Prerequisite: MPM2D, Grade 10 Principles of Mathematics
Grade 11 Function (MCR3U) course introduces the mathematical concept of the function by extending students’ experiences with linear and quadratic relations. Students will investigate properties of discrete and continuous functions, including trigonometric and exponential functions; represent functions numerically, algebraically, and graphically; solve problems involving applications of functions; investigate inverse functions; and develop facility in determining equivalent algebraic expressions. Students will reason mathematically and communicate their thinking as they solve multi-step problems.

Fundamental Concepts Covered in Grade 11 Mathematics Online Course
This course is designed to provide students with the necessary skills and knowledge as well as a development of an attitude that supports these skills and knowledge responsibly. The course design is geared to meet and exceed the prerequisite requirements for studying mathematics at the University level. The framework of course delivery focuses the “big pictures” or underlying principles, of mathematics as outlined on page 4 of the Ontario Ministry of Education document: The organization of the course is packaged into six distinct units which correspond with the Ontario Curriculum, Grades 11 and 12 Mathematics document. However, the number of units has been redesigned to what the author considers a more constructive development of material promoting a more manageable chunking of information from a students’ perspective. In addition, a pre-unit has been added to review and assess the knowledge and skills of students prior to commencing the actual grade 11 course material. Teachers will be providing an assessment for learning opportunity at the beginning of the course; after the pre-unit as recommended in the Growing Success 2010 document. Teachers will be able to use the results of this diagnostic to identify gaps in concepts for learners and provide opportunities to bridge these gaps preparing all learners to be successful in the Grade 11 Functions course by establishing a strong prerequisite foundation.
