Honors Geometry
Geometry is the second course in a sequence of three high school courses designed to ensure career and college readiness. This course is intended to enhance students’ geometric, algebraic, graphical, and probabilistic reasoning skills. Students will apply their algebraic and geometric reasoning skills to make sense of problems involving geometry, trigonometry, algebra, probability, and statistics. Students will continue to enhance their analytical geometry and reasoning skills when analyzing and applying a deep understanding of polynomial expressions, proofs, constructions, rigid motions and transformations, similarity, congruence, circles, right triangle trigonometry, geometric measurement, and conditional probability.
Calculator: We will use Desmos, an online grahing/scientific calculator, for most of our assignments. However, a handheld calculator is encouraged. UGHS math department recommends the Casio FX-115ES-Plus. You will be able to use this for future math classes at UGHS as well as the PSAT, SAT, and ACT.
