Prerequisites for Freshmen:
Students are placed in the appropriate course level based on results on the Admissions Assessments; High School Algebra I credit required.Prerequisites for Sophomores:
Successful completion of Algebra I
Course Description:
This course investigates the relations, properties, and measurements of solids, surfaces, lines, and planes. Topics covered will include: an introduction to trigonometry, points, lines and planes and their meaning in geometry; initial postulates and theorems, angle relationships, perpendicular lines, congruent triangles, parallel lines, similar triangles, quadrilaterals, circles, perimeters, areas, volumes, special right triangles, proofs and real-world applications (STEM).Special Notes:
All students are required to have a TI-Nspire CX handheld graphing calculator (TI-Nspire CAS model is not permitted).Geometry Honors
Geometry Honors
Prerequisites for Freshmen:
Students are placed in the appropriate course level based on results on the Admissions Assessments; High School Algebra I credit required.Prerequisites for Sophomores:
83 or higher Algebra I Honors or
97 or higher in College Preparatory Algebra I with a 93+ on Final Exam
Course Description:
This accelerated course is a rigorous and in-depth study of topics covered in Geometry as well as some concepts from Precalculus. Students in this course must be able to grasp the subject matter quickly and must be willing to spend considerable time in home study and written assignments. Students are expected to solve problems, analyze information, and apply concepts to real world situations. Topics covered include: segments and angles, logic statements, parallel lines, triangles and polygons, proofs, circles, quadrilaterals, similarity, right triangles, trigonometry, area, volume, and conic sections and real world applications (STEM).Special Notes:
All students are required to have a TI-Nspire CX handheld graphing calculator (TI-Nspire CAS model is not permitted).Geometry Honors Advanced
Geometry Honors Advanced
Prerequisites for Freshmen:
Students are placed in the appropriate course level based on results on the Admissions Assessments; High School Algebra I credit required.Prerequisites for Sophomores:
97 or higher in Algebra I Honors with a 90 or higher on Final Exam
Course Description:
The rigorous, accelerated course is designed to prepare students for the more advanced mathematics class in subsequent years. The course will emphasize the use of deductive and inductive reasoning to increase their ability to reason logically in solving real world situations. The class will cover more challenging in-depth study of the curriculum. The first half of the year will integrate Algebra and Geometry. The focus of the second half of the year is preparation for Trigonometry and Algebra II with covering of the Right Triangle Trigonometry and analytic geometry.Special Notes:
All students are required to have a TI-Nspire CX handheld graphing calculator (TI-Nspire CAS model is not permitted).Page updated
