    With the successful completion of Algebra, Geometry provides studentswith the experiences that deepen the understanding of two and three-

    dimensional objects and their properties. While studying the relationships

    of points, lines, angles, planes, polygons, circles, and polyhedral; anunderstanding of proof and logic is developed.

    This course terminates with the successful completion of the New YorkState Regents Examination in Geometry

    Text:

    Amscos Geometry By Ann Xavier GantertObjectives: What will students understand as a result of this course?

    Differentiate between the properties of geometric figures Describe spatial relationships through hands-on activities Relate geometric transformations through movement on the coordinate plane Make connections of algebra through usage of coordinate geometry Experience the geometry of measurement through real-world circumstances Exercise the problem-solving skills of geometric modeling Understand the relationship between geometry and deductive reasoning Draw conclusions using formal axioms and theorems
