Calculus and Vectors 2022 Spring

This course builds on students’ previous experience with functions and their developing understanding of rates of change. Students will solve geometric and algebraic representations of vectors and illustrations of lines and planes in three-dimensional space. Students will broaden their understanding of rates of change to include the derivatives of polynomial, sinusoidal, exponential, rational, and radical functions; and apply these concepts and skills to the modelling of real-world relationships. Students will also refine their use of the mathematical processes necessary for success in senior mathematics. This course is intended for students who choose to pursue careers in fields such as science, engineering, economics, and some areas of business, including those who will be required to take a university-level calculus, linear algebra, or physics course.

Note: The new Advanced Functions course (MHF4U) must be taken before or concurrently with Calculus and Vectors (MCV4U).
