Course Overview

Integrated Math 2 B continues the study of algebra, geometry, and statistics, providing students with a deeper understanding of mathematical concepts and their applications. Building on the foundation of Integrated Math 2 A, this course focuses on quadratic functions and complex numbers, geometric transformations, congruence and similarity, and data interpretation. Students also extend their study of probability, emphasizing logical reasoning and real-world applications.

Key Learning Focus

Students will:

• Analyze and apply quadratic functions and work with complex numbers.
• Explore geometric transformations and investigate congruence and similarity.
• Interpret and analyze data using statistical tools.
• Strengthen understanding of probability and its real-world applications.
• Apply mathematical reasoning to authentic scenarios and problem-solving tasks.

Instructional Approach

Students engage in active learning through problem-solving exercises, project-based activities, and collaborative discussions. This approach fosters critical thinking, mathematical communication, and analytical skills while connecting abstract concepts to meaningful, real-world contexts. Students are also introduced to careers in mathematics-rich fields, reinforcing the practical relevance of their learning.

Academic Alignment

Integrated Math 2 B is aligned with state and national Common Core mathematics standards and is part of the sequential high school mathematics program. Together with Integrated Math 2 A, it serves as an essential step in preparing students for Integrated Math 3 and advanced mathematics study.

Outcome

By the end of Integrated Math 2 B, students will be proficient in quadratic functions, transformations, congruence, similarity, and probability. They will be prepared to advance to Integrated Math 3, with the confidence and skills necessary for success in college-level mathematics and STEM career pathways such as engineering, finance, and data analysis.
