In this challenging course, students will develop reasoning and problem solving skills as they study geometric topics and their applications. These include congruence and similarity, as well as properties of lines, triangles, quadrilaterals, and circles. Students will use inductive reasoning to discover properties of geometry and hone their deductive reasoning skills through the completion of formal geometric proofs. They will also develop problem-solving skills by using length, perimeter, area, circumference, surface area, and volume to solve real-world problems. A scientific or graphing calculator is required.
