TOPICS AND CONCEPTS Math B covers concepts that can be found in Trigonometry and advanced Algebra , as well as preparing students for Pre-calculus and Calculus and reviewing old topics. During their year of study, students will learn different Theorem s, graph complex Number s and Vector s, as well as reviewing topics such as Exponential Function s, Systems Of Inequalities , and Radical s. As the year progresses, students will be expected to relate these Functions to the Real World , create Conjecture s through their own Research , and begin a Classroom discussion about these topics. At the end of their studies, they will take the New York State Math B Regents Examination . CHANGES In November, Graduation as related to Mathematics . The Curriculum recommended that, in addition to the current Regents exam at the end of the Math B course, there should be another Regents exam, at the end of the first half of Math B study (currently Math A/B ), to be administered no later than June 2008 , bringing the total number of Regents exams to three. In addition, the committee recommended that the course's name be changed to ''Integrated Geometry '' for the first half of the course, and ''Integrated Algebra II and Trigonometry '' for the second half of the course (currently Math B). The move was praised by many who thought the changes to the original draft Curriculum were unnecessary. SEE ALSO SOURCES
