Recommended: C or better in Algebra 1, Algebra 1B or Algebra I with Algebra Workshop or completion of Algebra 1B. The key content, which follows the state standards for Geometry, includes a formal development of geometric skills and concepts. This course introduces plane and solid geometry. They will develop the ability to construct formal logical arguments and proofs in a geometric setting. Students will build their reasoning skills through studying the following topics: properties of triangles, quadrilaterals, circles, compass constructions, transformations, volume, area, similarity, the Pythagorean Theorem, coordinate geometry, and an introduction to basic trigonometric functions. Geometry meets the graduation requirement. This course covers all state standards and prepares a student for Algebra 2.
