The course is aimed at students who want to review the basic knowledge of mathematics before starting the courses of the curriculum of the Bachelor's Degree Programme in Environmental Engineering for the Ecological Transition. In particular, the course is aimed at students enrolled with additional educational obligations (OFA).

The aim of the course is to briefly review the mathematics knowledge relating to the first three years of the upper secondary school curricula, in order to provide secondary elements useful for addressing the teachings of the first year of the degree course.

Representative exercises will be analyzed and solved, also taken from past editions of the TOLC-I test.
Knowledge:
- Properties of numbers (natural, integer, rational, real) and of the main operations;
- Principles for solving polynomial, fractional, exponential, logarithmic, trigonometric, irrational equations and inequalities;
- Properties of elementary functions;

Skills:
- Simplification of expressions with powers, exponentials, logarithms, trigonometric functions;
- Solving polynomial, fractional, exponential, logarithmic, trigonometric, irrational equations and inequalities;
- Graph elementary functions;
- Interpret and solve problems of logic and verbal understanding.
Basic mathematics at lower secondary school level.
ALGEBRA

-Properties and operations on numbers (natural, integer, rational, real);
-Absolute value;
- Powers and roots;
-Logarithms and exponentials;
-Division and factorization of polynomials;
- First and second degree algebraic equations and inequalities;
- Fractured and radical equations and rational inequalities;
-Systems of equations and inequalities.
- Logarithmic and exponential equations and inequalities.

FUNCTIONS

- Cartesian coordinates;
- The concept of function;
-Equations of lines, parables;
- Graphs and properties of elementary functions (powers, logarithms, exponentials, etc.).

TRIGONOMETRY

- Graphs and properties of the sine, cosine and tangent functions;
-Trigonometric equations and inequalities.
Exercises in class will be provided. There will be no final test at the end of the course. The fulfillment of the Additional Educational Obligations (OFA) is determined by passing of the TOLC-I test which is delivered periodically.
- Frontal lessons;
- Classroom exercises.
