HSC 063 - Geometry IA

Credits: 5
LEC hours per week: 5
This course fulfills the first half in the fundamentals of plane geometry, covering the vocabulary and concept of geometry through the use of formal proof and algebra. Completion of the geometry sequence prepares students for higher level mathematics courses and for those science courses requiring a working knowledge of geometry.
Course Outcomes:

Distinguish between two-dimensional and three-dimensional figures and design algebraic equations from their properties.
Design two-column and paragraph proofs to justify conclusions.
Determine similarity between figures through comparison.
Evaluate transformations for symmetry. From the Common Core Geometry Standards.

Course Topics:

Geometry in the coordinate plane.
Geometric transformations.
Geometric formulas for measurement.
Circles.
