Pre AP Geometry (Period 8)

Course Description

  Using a traditional Euclidean approach, this course begins with logic and reasoning before moving on to such themes as definitions, postulates, and theorems. Primary topics include points, lines, angles, triangles, inequalities, quadrilaterals, polygons, basic trigonometry, circles, area, solid geometry, coordinate geometry, and constructions. Practical applications and word problems will aid in understanding how geometry is used in the real world. Mental math and problem solving as required on standardized tests are included. Formal proofs are used throughout.
