About this event
Geometry is a six-week academic program normally covered over a year’s time in the basic sequence of college preparatory mathematics at King. This is a rigorous and accelerated course designed for students with a strong mathematics interest and background. Completion of this course enables students to enter Algebra II. This course covers traditional topics in geometry; logic, parallel and perpendicular lines and planes, congruence and similarity in two and three dimensions, coordinate geometry, and transformations. A major theme of this course is patterns in reasoning, including formal proof, visual analysis, and problem-solving. Both dynamic geometry software and traditional compass and straightedge are utilized for construction and conjecturing. The topics in the course include: Reasoning and Proof Parallel and Perpendicular Lines Congruent Triangles Relationships Within Triangles Quadrilaterals Similarity Circles Right Triangles and Trigonometry Area Surface Area and Volume Circles
