Welcome to your Geometry class! This course is the second in a five-year sequence of college preparatory mathematics courses. The course curriculum is aligned with the California Common Core State Standards. It emphasizes several big ideas in an integrated algebra/geometry context. The key concepts addressed in this course are:

• Transformations (reflection, rotation, translation, dilation) and symmetry
• Relationships between figures (such as similarity and congruence)
• Properties of plane figures (such as equal or perpendicular sides or diagonals)
• Measurements of plane figures (such as area, perimeter, and angle measure)
• Measurements of three-dimensional shapes (such as volume and surface area)
• Tools for analyzing and measuring shapes (such as the Pythagorean Theorem, trigonometric ratios, the Laws of Sine and Cosine, and coordinate geometry)
• Investigation and proof (having found patterns, students conjecture and prove)
• Geometric construction (with compass and straightedge)
• Algebra (with substantial review of writing and solving equations and graphing)
• Probability

Football is not learned by silently watching others play. Likewise, the only way you can become good at math is by doing problems and talking about them. If you do both, you will learn math. Hence, you must have the willingness and maturity to study & complete assignments every night. Furthermore, you will find that math is not only useful; it is fun.

Because you will be working in study teams, you are expected to:

• develop your ability to contribute to and benefit from working together in study teams
• bring your textbook or eDevice, calculator and well-organized notebook to class EVERY DAY;
• ask questions of others in your study team when you do not understand; and
• be responsible for understanding all the work all year.

Please be sure to read the Course Syllabus, (pdf is on the right), and return the bottom of the Notebook Assignment (pdf is on the right) signed by both the student and the parent.  Students are required to keep a copy of the syllabus in their notebook, under the Assignment Sheets section.
