This document contains three modules. The first of these examines applications of algebra to geometry. It is designed to teach students how to algebraically characterize points which may be constructed with a compass and straight edge, and how to use this characterization to obtain classical geometric nonconstructibility results. The second unit…

This document consists of two major sections. The first of these is actually three units that look at applications of arithmetic to business. Basic pre-algebra mathematics is an assumed prerequisite. These units are titled: 367-The Real Numbers; 368-Fractions and Their Uses: Ratio and Proportion; and 369-Exponents: Powers and Roots. Each module…
