What is harder geometry or pre-calculus?

Pre-calculus is supposed to be a stringent review of trig and algebra in preparation for calculus. So, pre-calculus, I would say.


How is pre-calculus used in the real world?

In the 'real world', the purpose of a course of study in pre-calculus is to prepare the student for a course of study in Calculus.


Is Elementary Calculus the same as Pre-Calculus?

In short, no. Elementary calculus includes finding limits, basic differentiation and integration, dealing with sequences and series, and simple vector operations, among other concepts. Pre-calculus mostly focuses on the algebra necessary to perform those operations, with perhaps some introduction to limits or other simple ideas from elementary calculus.


What is difference between pre-calculus and calculus?

Simple answer: Calculus involves derivation and integration, precal doesn't. Pre calculus gives you some of the algebraic, geometric and trigonometric understanding that is required to comprehend the concepts in calculus. Without the knowledge from precal, calculus would not be easily understood, as it is taught in schools today.


Is algebra harder than calculus?

No calculus is harder, because calculus is basically a combination of algebra and trigonometry, so you need algebra to do calculus. Also, calculus involves limits, differentiation, and integration. Integration makes algebra look like kindergarten. +++ Meaningless question, ditto with the answers I'm afraid. These are not separate entities but all fields of mathematics, and you use algebra in expressing and solving mathematical problems. Calculus is NOT "basically a combination of algebra and trigonometry". You can differentiate and integrate trig. functions, but although calculus alone does not rely on trigonometry for its existence, its manoeuvres are all algebraic steps. As to comparative difficulty, that is entirely down to you. If you find algebra difficult you will find trigonometry and calculus difficult, because algebra is used to describe those two (and any other) mathematical process. Algebra is not an isolated topic!

What is harder pre-calculus or Trig?

They are the same thing. ----------------------- Depends on the course.


Which is harder - trig or calculus?

Opinion: Calculus is much harder, mostly because of it's complexity. Calculus requires much more formula memorization and ingenuity.


What do you need more for collage pre calc or trig?

Trig, because it's harder, which will prepare you better


Is Algebra II similar to Algebra I?

Math is taught like this: Pre-Algebra, Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra 2, Pre-Calculus, Calculus, Trigonometry. Algebra I is similar to Algebra 2, but Algebra 2 has more difficult concepts, such as imaginary numbers. Added: I would have put statistics and trig in between Algebra 2 and Pre-calculus. You review trig in precalculus and statistics is the first transferable math course in college.


What is the proper of high school math courses?

Most people in high school take some of these courses mostly in order Algebra 1,Algebra 2,Geomentry, Trig/Pre-Calculus,Calculus, Calculus 2, and Statastics.


What math comes after trig?

Precalculus and/or calculus.

Is pre-calculus honors difficult from a normal algebra 2 class i have an A in algebra 2 and its getting to the point to where its kinda boring what do i have to learn to be prepared?

Pre-calculus honors covers more advanced topics than algebra 2, such as trigonometry and limits. To prepare, focus on strengthening your algebra skills, particularly with functions, graphs, and equations. Additionally, familiarize yourself with trigonometric functions and properties to ease the transition.


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.


Does a BA degree in English require calculus or trig?

No.
