FUNDAMENTALS OF GEOMETRY

Basic Geometry will develop the student’s ability to think clearly and logically. Students will be able to recognize geometric figures and concepts in the world around them. Students will apply geometric concepts through the use of drawings and constructions. Topics to be covered in Basic Geometry include distance, angle measurement, angle relationships, triangles and congruence, triangle relationships, parallel lines, quadrilaterals, similarity and similar triangles, polygons, circles, space figures, perimeter, area, volume, coordinate geometry, and trigonometric ratios. Formal mathematical reasoning (proofs) will be used to develop concepts.
