No, geometry is more depth into algebra, with formulas and shapes.

That's why algebra is a prerequisite

Can you take precalculus and algebra 2 trig at the same time?

No, you can't. Although similar in concepts, Pre-Calculus is more advanced than Algebra 2. Algebra 2 is taken between Algebra 1 and Geometry or after Geometry and before Pre-Calculus. The reason that you can't take both at the same time is because of the curriculum. Pre-Calculus does not spend nearly as much time on linear topics (linear equations, linear programming, etc.) as Algebra 2 does. Pre-Calculus also almost always is 2 courses in one: Pre-Calculus and Trigonometry. Algebra 2 has very little, if any, trig. Topics that they have in common are quadratics equations/functions, polynomial equations/functions, rational functions, exponential & logarithmic functions (sometimes these are not covered in Algebra 2), possibly conic sections in Algebra 2, definitely in Pre-Calculus, factoring, and probability/sequences/series/statistics. In addition to trigonometry, pre-calculus also covers polar and parametric topics (these will NEVER NEVER NEVER be seen in Algebra 2) and an introduction to limits. So, you must take Algebra 2 before pre-calculus. If you want to take 2 math courses in 1 year, try algebra 1 and geometry (not very common), algebra 2 and geometry (somewhat common), and some schools allow honors students with a solid A in Algebra 2 (assuming you took Algebra 2 before Geometry, this differs between schools) allow you to take geometry and pre-calculus in the same year. The study of proofs is not a major topic in pre-calculus, and proofs make up a majority of geometry.


What class is best to take first geometry or algebra?

Algebra. I took it in that order, and to do most of the geometry, you HAVE to know algebra. If I had taken geometry first, I would have failed. ALGEBRA FIRST.


What is the mix of geometry and algebra?

solid geometry


What is important of geometry?

Geometry is like a block from Algebra 1 to Algebra 2 and it contributes by teaching you the basics of the things you will learn in Algebra 2.


Basic algebra and geometry first created by what civilization?

The Sumerians (Sumerian Civilization) was the first to develop algebra and geometry

Are calculus and linear algebra courses hard for an individual who got an a plus in algebra?

you don't go from algebra to calculus and linear algebra. you go from algebra to geometry to advanced algebra with trig to pre calculus to calculus 1 to calculus 2 to calculus 3 to linear algebra. so since you got an A+ in algebra, I think you are good.


Is Geometry the same as Pre-Algebra?

No it is not the same. Kind of, but geometry is more advanced.

What are linear points?

Linear points are any point on a line. There can be an infinite points on a line. Linear points are most commonly discussed in Algebra and Geometry classes.


Is linear algebra and linear equations the same?

Linear Algebra is a branch of mathematics that enables you to solve many linear equations at the same time. For example, if you had 15 lines (linear equations) and wanted to know if there was a point where they all intersected, you would use Linear Algebra to solve that question. Linear Algebra uses matrices to solve these large systems of equations.


Do CO2 and so2 have the same geometry?

No, the geometry of CO2 is linear while the geometry of SO2 is bent.


What is the order for higher level math classes?

Normal grades. 1.Pre-Algebra(7th grade) 2.Algebra I(8th) 3. Geometry(freshman) 4.Algebra II(sophmore) 5.Pre-calclulus/ Trig (junior) 6.Calculus(senior) 7. Multivariable Calculus 8. Matrix Algebra 9. Linear Algebra 10. Probability/Statistics However, Geometry may come after Algebra II, or a student might skip pre-Algebra. Also, Trigonometry can be included grouped with Geometry or separate. Statistics can be anywhere between Pre-Calc and after Linear Algebra.

Can you skip pre algebra and algebra and go into geometry?

You can get through many aspects of geometry without pre-algebra or algebra. However, when it comes to the measurement in geometry, you need algebra for that.

What comes first geometry or algebra?

It depends on your school, but it is usually Algebra 1, Algebra 2, then Geometry.
