Course Description
This is a dual credit class taken in conjunction with Missouri Western State University. Two
hours of MAT 119 college credit from MWSU will be awarded upon successful completion of the
course. This course prepares students to solve numerous “real-world” problems, and provides a
foundation for the study of calculus. Consideration will be given to triangle measurement, the six
trigonometric functions, and graphs of trigonometric functions, trigonometric identities, solving
conditional trigonometric equations, applications of trigonometry, complex numbers and polar
coordinates. This course is intended for students intending to pursue a college degree in
mathematics, science, engineering, and some business degrees. A fee is required for the dual
credit.
Prerequisites
Students must have a cumulative, non-weighted GPA of 3.0 or higher and have a Math ACT of
22 or above or passing of the college placement test.
