Prerequisite: 3 ½ years high school math or C- in Math 1031 or Math 1051 or placement exam. Trigonometry is not a prerequisite. Audience: Students from Math 1051 (Precalculus I) or Math 1031 (College Algebra) and those that need a little refresher course before going on to calculus, often because of the trig.
