Geometry

Mathematics

Building on arithmetic and Algebra I skills, Geometry is a traditional course in plane and spatial geometry. Geometry serves to strengthen core problem-solving skills and thoroughly investigate the language and logic within geometric topics. In this course, students discover the beauty and order of mathematical relationships and acquire knowledge and skills related to reasoning, symbolic logic, parallel and perpendicular lines, triangles, congruence, formal two-column proofs, quadrilaterals, parallelograms, area, surface area, volume, ratio and proportions, transformations, coordinate geometry, right triangle trigonometry, circles, and other related topics. Algebra I skills are woven into the course as a continual form of review. Geometry is considered the second year of the required high school math sequence and is normally sequenced between Algebra I and Algebra II, although motivated students may take Geometry concurrently with Algebra II Honors with approval from the Math Department Chair.
