Today is Unit 2 test review day!

Unit 2 Study Guide Solutions

Thursday 01.29.15

Today we used the entire class period to work on the attached assignment on Angles of Elevation and Depression.

Angles of Elevation and Depression ASSIGNMENT

Wednesday 01.28.15

Today's lesson is on angles of elevation and angles of depression.  These are word problems that require the use of sine, cosine, or tangent to solve.  We also have a very short lesson on sine and cosine of complementary angles.

Wednesday 1.21.15

Today we will make geometric constructions with compasses and straight edges.  Use the Teaching Videos tab above to access the construction videos.  Use the EOC Study Guide Tab to access written directions of the constructions (pg 45-55 of the study guide).

Tuesday 01.20.15

Today's lesson is on properties of parallelograms.  We will also add two parallelogram proofs to our proofs booklet:  Opposite Sides of Parallelograms are Congruent & Diagonals of Parallelograms Bisect Each Other

Friday 1.16.15

Today we added two proofs to our proofs booklet: Triangle Sum Theorem and The Base Angles of an Isosceles Triangle are Congruent.

Thursday 1.15.15

Today we will add two proofs to our proofs foldable: "Vertical Angles are Congruent" and "Alternate Interior Angles are Congruent"

We will also learn about the 5 ways to prove triangles are congruent: SSS, SAS, ASA, AAS, and HL.
