Description
Geometry is everywhere, not just in pyramids. Engineers use geometry to build highways and bridges. Artists use geometry to create perspective in their paintings, and mapmakers help travelers find things using the points located on a geometric grid. Throughout this course, students travel a mathematical highway illuminated by spatial relationships, reasoning, connections, and problem solving. It is an opportunity to develop mathematical reasoning, critical thinking skills, and problem solving techniques to investigate and explore geometry.
Topics include:
- Deductive and inductive reasoning
- Direct and indirect proof
- Parallel lines and planes
- Congruence and similarity
- Polygons
- Perimeter, area, and volume
- Right triangles
- Circles
- Coordinate geometry
- Transformations and symmetry
- Constructions and Loci
Study materials (e-books, Discovery Education, etc. ...) for FLVS Global courses are INCLUDED in the price of the course.
