Geometry

Geometry includes the study of shapes, their properties and relationships. Emphasis is on

discovery, exploration and formulating and defending conjectures. It includes an in-depth study of

reasoning, polygons, congruence, similarity, right triangles, circles, area, volume, and transformations.

Students use a variety of approaches: coordinate, transformational, and axiomatic systems and

discover the connections between geometry and disciplines such as art and architecture. Students use

graphing calculators.
