Course alignment and coverage

Current public English/French course descriptions checked on 25 October 2026. Language-coded counterparts share one independent practice pathway; this is not a transfer-credit or section-equivalence determination. Current weekly section plans remain unverified.

Across this collection: 140 distinct original families and 420 parameter instances. Courses share topic banks; translations and shared mappings are not extra questions.

Supported learning objectives

  • Algebra essentials

    Solve linear equations, expand products, factor a quadratic and identify an inequality boundary.

  • Functions and domains

    Evaluate and compose functions, invert a linear function and find a square-root domain endpoint.

  • Powers and logarithms

    Evaluate integer powers and logarithms, apply a doubling model and solve an equal-base equation.

  • Trigonometry foundations

    Convert degrees to radians, use a right-triangle ratio and find a sine period. Numeric answers only.

What is not covered

Selected equations, function evaluation/composition/inverses, exponentials and numerical trigonometry only. Complete graphing, rational/absolute-value inequalities, general trigonometric equations, identities and modelling tasks are missing. Check official placement, admissions and credit restrictions.

An original worked example

Solve 2x+3=9. Enter x.

Worked solution

Answer: 3

  1. 2x=6.
  2. Divide by 2: x=3.
