In this high school level Geometry course we will be using curriculum from Math-U-See. We will cover points, rays, lines, set theory, types of angles and lines, polygons, perimeter and area, circles and ellipses, volume, radicals, Pythagorean theorem, transformations, and a brief introduction to Trigonometric functions. Students should have already successfully completed Algebra 1 prior to taking this course. Students will have daily assignments and should plan to spend an average of 30 -40 minutes daily. There will be quizzes and tests. Students will need to purchase the Math-U-See Geometry Student Workbook. I will be offering supplemental weekly tutoring on Mondays at 2:00. Students must confirm that they are coming, and/or arrive by 2:10pm. Other tutoring can be arranged if needed.
