# Math Challenge II-B Guided Study Groups

### Course Description

In Math Challenge II-B, students learn and practice in areas such as algebra and geometry at the high school level, as well as advanced number theory and combinatorics. Topics include polynomials, inequalities, special algebraic techniques, trigonometry, triangles and polygons, collinearity and concurrency, vectors and coordinates, numbers and divisibility, modular arithmetic, residue classes, advanced counting strategies, binomial coefficients, pigeonhole principle, sequence and series, and various other topics and problem solving techniques involved in math contests such as the American Mathematics Competition (AMC) 10/12, ARML, and also beginning AIME.

Each Guided Study group will follow the Math Challenge II-B course textbook:

The eBook is included in the tuition of the course. See the Registration and Tuition information below for more information of how Areteem Instructors supervise students as part of a Guided Study Group.

### Course Terms

Guided Study Groups are available for Math Challenge II-B in four different subjects:

• Algebra
• Geometry
• Combinatorics
• Number Theory

We recommend that students take all four terms, but the terms do not build on previous terms, so they do not need to be taken in order and students can take single terms if they want to focus on specific topics. For more information about the topics covered each term, please click here.

Each Guided Study Group may require 6+ hours of study each week. Advanced and motivated students can take multiple subjects at the same time, but only in special cases do we recommend enrollment in 3 or more Guided Study Groups at the same time.

### MC II-B Geometry Guided Study Group Summer 2020

The focus of this Guided Study Group is Math Challenge II-B Geometry.

### MC II-B Number Theory Guided Study Group Summer 2020

The focus of this Guided Study Group is Math Challenge II-B Number Theory.

The registration fee of \\$350 includes the eBook, accompanying video lectures, graded homework assignments with personalized feedback, and access to discussion forums and live office hour sessions.
