Guided by experts from the School of Mathematics and the Maths Learning Centre at the University of Adelaide, this course will continue the study of functions initiated in the course Polynomials, Functions and Graphs by moving into trigonometric functions, exponential functions, and logarithmic functions.
Trigonometric functions are extremely important in applications of mathematics to study situations involving periodic phenomena such as tidal flow. Exponential and logarithmic functions have many uses in applications of mathematics to biology, business and economics, physics and other areas.
Join us as we provide opportunities to develop your skills and confidence in applying mathematical functions.
This course is part of the MathTrackX XSeries Program.

What you'll learn

  • Properties and graphing of trigonometric functions including sine, cosine and tangent
  • Exponential and logarithmic functions
