It offers students an opportunity to rely on mathematical reasoning, critical thinking, and problem solving skills to investigate and explore geometry. Topics include reasoning, direct and indirect proof, parallel lines and planes, congruence, similarity, quadrilaterals, measurement, polygons, right triangles, circles, coordinate geometry, reflections, transformations, and symmetry. Assignments are based on a textbook that is purchased separately by the student. Typically 6 months
