MFM2P - 10th, Mathematics Methods

Mathematics Methods, Grade 10, Applied Course (MFM2P) This course allows students to analyze various application problems in order to establish a link between concrete situations and mathematical representation. Students consolidate their knowledge of the affine function by solving and interpreting systems of first-degree equations. They analyze various situations that can be modeled by a second-degree function in order to determine their characteristics. Students then use these to solve problems involving second-degree functions and equations. In measurement, students solve application problems based on the study of the properties of similar triangles. They establish, from concrete situations, the formulas for the area of a solid and use them in problem solving. In trigonometry, they use trigonometric ratios to solve problems in applications. Throughout the course, the student learns to argue and communicate clearly and to specify the steps of their mathematical reasoning. Prerequisite: Mathematics, 9th year, open-ended course (2021) or Mathematical Methods, 9th year, applied course (2005)
