The Grade 11 university/college pre

The Grade 11 university/college preparation course, Functions and Applications, provides
preparation for students who plan to pursue technology-related programs in college, while
also leaving the option open for some students to pursue postsecondary programs that
require the Grade 12 university preparation course Mathematics of Data Management.
The Functions and Applications course explores functions by revisiting key concepts from
the Grade 10 mathematics curriculum and by using a more applied approach with less
emphasis on abstract concepts than in the Grade 11 university preparation course,
Functions. The first strand, Quadratic Functions, extends knowledge and skills related
to quadratics for students who completed the Grade 10 applied mathematics course and
reviews this topic for students entering from the Grade 10 academic course. The strand
also introduces some of the properties of functions. The other two strands, Exponential
Functions and Trigonometric Functions, emphasize real-world applications and help
students develop the knowledge and skills needed to solve problems related to these
applications
