| Geometry
Welcome! Geometry has a long tradition of being a core element of a cultured education. You can look forward to learning mathematics in a whole new way, for geometry is not much like algebra. Logical thinking and problem solving will be our themes for first semester. I look forward to working with you!

Students will explore more deeply the concepts of parallel lines, angles, area calculations, parallelograms and triangle properties. This class will include formal proofs, right triangle trigonometry, properties of circles, and polygon properties. Students will also be introduced to basic probability and undergo a heavy review of Algebra I throughout the year. Textbook: Geometry by Ron Larson, published by McDougal Littell, ©2004 |
