Here you are, perusing a blog on the essentials of Algebra II. You’ll find here, as Joe Friday (star of the old Dragnet series) said, “The facts, ma’am, just the facts.” For those of you too young to remember Dragnet, just think of this essentials blog as being the Twitter version - not too detailed but with all the necessary information. In this blog, you find the information you need with enough examples to show you the processes, but not a bunch of nitty-gritty details that tend to get in the way.
A blog on Algebra II isn’t a romance novel (although I do love math), and it isn’t science fiction. You could think of this blog as a cross between a travel guide and a mathematical laboratory manual. How do travel and math go together? Let me try some situations that may fit:
✓ You just finished working through Algebra I and feel eager to embark on a new adventure.
✓ You haven’t worked with algebra in a while, but math has always been your strength, so you think that a little prepping with some basic concepts will bring you up to speed.
✓ You’re helping a friend or family member with Algebra II and want just the most necessary information - no frills or extra side-trips.
✓ You haven’t worked with algebra in a while, but math has always been your strength, so you think that a little prepping with some basic concepts will bring you up to speed.
✓ You’re helping a friend or family member with Algebra II and want just the most necessary information - no frills or extra side-trips.
Even though I’ve pared the material in this blog down to the basics, I haven’t lost sight of the fact that other math areas are what drive Algebra II. Algebra is the passport to studying calculus, trigonometry, number theory, geometry, and all sorts of good mathematics. Algebra is basic, and the algebra you find here will help you grow your skills and knowledge so you can do well in math courses and possibly pursue other math topics.
