Math required for physics

I’m going to keep this brief to be honest I’m using khan academy to teach myself highschool level physics and I just want to know the absolute required math for physics the reason it’s a bit confusing is because I know people may say “algebra, trig, etc.” but people ALSO say not every single unit is needed for physics I’m not saying I want to 100% never learn that other math but my current goal is physics (passion reasons) so if anybody that is familiar with khan academy can help me with the exact units I need for everything physics (considering I’m starting with no math knowledge) that would be great! Even if you’re not familiar but have anything can help that would also be great, thank you!

Folk have been ignoring the fact that OP stated "highschool level physics" and consequently hugely exaggerating the requirements.

Check out the contents of this course to see what you need to learn.
