Although the emphasis is placed on <strong>reasoning and proof<\/strong> in this final year of coll\u00e8ge.<\/p>\n<p>3e students must acquire <strong>knowledge of numerical calculation<\/strong>, have a grasp of <strong>statistical study<\/strong>, <strong>recognise geometric shapes<\/strong> (flat or otherwise) and <strong>use axial or central symmetry<\/strong>.
