In mathematics education, Precalculus, an advanced form of secondary school algebra, is a foundational mathematical discipline. It is sometimes considered to be an honors course. Courses and textbooks in precalculus are intended to prepare students for the study of calculus. Precalculus typically includes a review of algebra and trigonometry, as well as an introduction to exponential, logarithmic and trigonometric functions, vectors, complex numbers, conic sections, and analytic geometry. Equivalent college courses are college algebra and trigonometry.
In detail, precalculus deals with:
-Sets
-Real numbers
-Complex numbers
-Solving inequalities and equations
-Properties of functions
-Composite function
-Polynomial functions
-Rational functions
-Trigonometry
-Trigonometric functions and their inverses
-Trigonometric identities
-Conic sections
-Exponential functions
-Logarithmic functions
-Sequences and series
-Binomial theorem
-Vectors
-Parametric equations
-Polar coordinates
-Matrices
-Mathematical induction
-Limits
