Assessment/Deliverables:

1. Quiz

2. Mod Test –

3. Student will apply definitions, axioms, and theorems from a geometric system to real-world problems. The student will investigate SSS, SAS and AAS triangle congruencies. The student will identify included sides and angles, write congruence statements, write conditional statements in “if-then” form, and use direct proof as a method of establishing theorems in Euclidean Geometry. The student will examine and write proofs or explanations of the Pythagorean Theorem.  The student will investigate and prove properties of quadrilaterals.

4. Chapter Project

Chapter Project

Find another proof of the Pythagorean Theorem.  Explain it fully in your own words and pictures.  Your may turn in as a paper or as a poster.
