Geometry
Course Description
Course Description
Geometry is based on developing reasoning and problem solving skills through topics such as congruence and similarity, and applying properties of lines, triangles, quadrilaterals, and circles. Problem - solving skills are constructed using length, perimeter, area, circumference, surface area, and volume to solve real-word problems. A large emphasis is placed on developing the skill of logical reasoning and deductive reasoning. Geometry also builds the foundation for Trigonometric understanding and success.
