This is a full-year geometry course designed for accelerated students with a background in algebra. It strikes a balance between theory and application, and integrates concepts of space geometry and plane geometry throughout. The course begins with an introduction to proofs, which is followed by lessons in deductive and deductive reasoning as well as indirect proofs. After this, topics covered include: congruent triangles, similar polygons, right triangles, circles, construction and loci, plane figures, areas and volumes of solids, coordinate geometry, and transformations. Students solve geometry and logic problems, and work through proofs in long form throughout the course. To ensure their thorough understanding and retention of geometry concepts, students also complete all exercises in every chapter of the textbook. Students will begin Algebra 2 during the last 5 weeks of the academic year.
