Introduction
It is recommended that whenever possible, topics be taught from the coordinate and transformational approaches, using real world models. Students should make conjectures and use computers and calculators to explore those conjectures in two and three dimensions.
Deductive arguments are to be expressed orally, in sentence or paragraph form, flow charts, and two column proofs.
| GEO.01 | The student shall be proficient in the language of geometry with respect to symbolism, theorems, postulates, definitions, and logical statements. |
| GEO.02 | The student shall formulate a proof formally, informally, orally, directly, and indirectly given appropriate information. |
| GEO.03 | The student shall demonstrate a useable knowledge of perpendicular, intersecting, and parallel lines cut by transversals and the relationships of angles formed. |
| GEO.04 | The student shall become familiar with the properties of similar polygons, congruent polygons, special polygons, such as right triangles and parrallelograms, area and perimeter of polygons, their interior and exterior angle measurements, and right-angle trigonometry. |
| GEO.05 | The student shall demonstrate the ability to understand the circumference and area of a circle along with the angles and segment properties of the circle. |
| GEO.06 | The student shall visualize three dimensional objects and identify their surface area, lateral and total area, volume, and determine the ratios between surface area and volume. |
| GEO.07 | The student shall determine geometric properties through construction of bisectors, segments, angles, congruent triangles, and parallelism. |
| GEO.08 | The student shall identify transformations with respect to rotation, reflection, translation and dilation, and identify symmetry within the transformation. |
| GEO.09 | The student shall relate geometric applications to coordinate geometry, including Pythagorean Theorem, distance, slope, midpoint, reflection, dilation, translation, and symmetry. |
