This course is designed to give students a basic understanding of elementary geometry concepts that will be utilized in other high school and college mathematics courses. Furthermore, the topics covered in this course will be applicable to many students’ careers, and to everyday life. This geometry course will serve to strengthen and sharpen students’ analysis and problem-solving skills. Although elements of geometric theory (postulates, theorems and proofs) will be presented in this course, the focus will be on the application of geometric principles, while utilizing algebraic methods. At the end of the course students will be prepared for either Integrated 3 or Algebra 2. The course follows the traditional Pathway for Geometry in the Common Core State Standards.
