Geometry - Year (5320)
Students in geometry study Euclid’s postulates and theorems as the basis
for an axiomatic system. Students will explore geometry
through inductive and deductive processes, technology, constructions, manipulatives,
and algebraic connections. Topics of investigation include logic, angle and line
relationships, triangles and other polygons, congruence, and similarity. Students
also study coordinate geometry. Trigonometric ratios of sine, cosine, and tangent
are used to solve triangle problems. Students will use area, volume, geometric
probability, and geometric relationships to solve real-life problems. While math
skills will be developed, teaching will focus on the understanding of concepts
with depth, enabling students to apply math skills and make meaningful connections
in life’s experiences. This course carries credit equivalent to Applied
Math 2. A graphing calculator is recommended. Prerequisite: Algebra 1 (5210).
