Geometry 1-2 Instructor: Pristine Hsu Grades: 9-12 Fall Semester: June 10th to June 28th, 2024 Days & Times: Daily, 8:00 am to 12:20 pm For initial graduation credit, students must enroll in both Fall and Spring semesters. Geometry is a formal development of the geometric skills & concepts necessary for students who will take Algebra 2 & other college preparatory courses. The course provides for consistent use of algebra throughout the year to reinforce skills & concepts learned in Algebra 1, strengthening problem-solving skills in the development of geometric concepts & application of logical principles to geometric proofs. Topics include: points, lines, planes, angles, postulates and theorems, deductive reasoning, special pairs of angles, perpendicular lines, proofs, parallel lines and planes, angles of triangles and polygons, inductive reasoning, congruent triangles, isosceles triangles, proving triangles congruent, properties of quadrilaterals, special parallelograms, inequalities in triangles, inverses and contrapositives, indirect proofs, ratio and proportion, similar polygons, right triangles, Pythagorean theorem, special right triangles, right triangle trigonometry, tangents, arcs and chords of circles, inscribed angles, constructions, areas of plane figures, areas and volumes of solids, and ratios of areas and volumes. Earns five of ten required credits for the graduation requirement. UC Approved. Prerequisites and Criteria: Available to students that completed Algebra 1 in grade 9 or above. Average Algebra 1 grade of 90% or higher for both semesters grades. This course is not for remediation, initial credit only. Students need to complete both summer sessions for credit.
