Geometry I (Virtual)

Geometry – Part I: Introduction to Geometry

This is the first year of a comprehensive two-year Geometry course that covers the full scope of high school geometry. Meeting once per week over 32 weeks, this course emphasizes the study of properties and applications of two- and three-dimensional geometric figures.

Students will explore key geometric concepts through a combination of visual reasoning, logical deduction, and real-world problem solving. Inductive and deductive thinking are emphasized, along with foundational proof-writing techniques used to establish the properties of geometric figures. This course also introduces basic right triangle trigonometry and geometric transformations.

Topics Covered Include:

• Points, lines, planes, and angles: definitions, postulates, and relationships

• Angle relationships with parallel lines and transversals

• Triangle congruence: SSS, SAS, ASA, AAS and corresponding parts

• Perimeter and area of two-dimensional shapes

• Similar figures: ratios, proportions, and similar triangles

• Right triangles and the Pythagorean Theorem

• Quadrilaterals and special parallelograms

Recommended For:

• Returning AlphaMinds Students: Those who have successfully completed our Math MS I course or higher

• New Students: Students in grades 7–10 who have completed a Pre-Algebra course.
