Prerequisites: Algebra 1A & 1B
Syllabus A Description:This Geometry course covers the required concepts of Euclidean geometry including definitions, postulates, and theorems. Areas of study include angles, parallel lines, congruent and similar triangles, polygons, circles and arc, and the Pythagorean Theorem. Special topics covered include coordinate and spatial geometry, introductory trigonometry, and constructions and loci. In addition to including problems which serve to review algebra, the process of “proving” theorems is introduced.

Syllabus B Description:This is the second semester of Geometry. All students should have taken the first semester of Geometry prior to taking this course. This Geometry course covers the required concepts of Euclidean geometry including definitions, postulates, and theorems that were not already taught in Geometry A. Areas of study include angles, parallel lines, congruent and similar triangles, polygons, circles and arc, and the Pythagorean Theorem. Special topics covered include coordinate and spatial geometry, introductory trigonometry, and constructions and loci. In addition to including problems which serve to review algebra, the process of “proving” theorems is introduced.
