The fundamental purpose of the course in Geometry is to formalize and extend students' geometric experiences. Students prove theorems and solve problems about triangles, quadrilaterals, and other polygons. They apply reasoning skills to complete formal proofs as well as geometric constructions. Criteria for similar triangles is used to solve problems, and applied in right triangles to understand right triangle trigonometry. Students develop the Laws of Sines and Cosines in order to find missing measures of general (not necessarily right) triangles. Experience with two-dimensional and three-dimensional objects is extended to include informal explanations of circumference, area and volume formulas. Students use a rectangular coordinate system to verify geometric relationships. Students prove basic theorems about circles and study relationships among segments on chords, secants, and tangents as an application of similarity. Students expand their ability to compute and interpret theoretical and experimental probabilities and use probability to make informed decisions.
