Geometry

Class Description: The course content itself is similar to any traditional Euclidean geometry course. Inductive and deductive reasoning and two-column proofs are introduced early in the year. Students will learn and apply properties of circles, triangles, quadrilaterals, and other polygons. They will also find the area of these figures and the volume of geometric solids. Students will understand transformations, reflections, rotations, and dilations of figures on the coordinate plane and apply the Pythagorean Theorem to numerous problem-solving situations. Finally, students will learn and apply trigonometric ratios, the Law of Sines and Cosines, and trigonometric identities. This is a challenging course that encourages higher-level thinking skills."   Credits: 1 (Math), Honors Prerequisite: Students must have completed Algebra 1 before taking Geometry, but may elect to take Algebra 2 before or after Geometry.
