This course builds on the foundation of the first terms in Geometry. As in previous courses, deductive and inductive reasoning are emphasized, while applying problem-solving techniques to real-world problems. Students explore quadrilaterals and circles and learn how an object is transformed, as well as how to represent that transformation algebraically and geometrically. Students calculate area … Read more
Geometry is the study of the measurement of the world. What makes geometry so engaging is the relationship of f igures and measures to each other and how these relationships can predict results in the world around us. Through practical applications, the student sees how geometric reasoning provides insight into everyday life. The course begins … Read more
Semester B of Honors Algebra II builds on the concepts learned in the first semester and prepares learners with the building blocks needed to dive deeper into trigonometry, pre-calculus, and advanced probability and statistics.
In the honors course, students will do an in-depth study, problem-solving, and application of algebraic concepts. Honors Algebra II Semester A further extends the learner understanding of major algebraic concepts such as expressions, equations, functions, and inequalities. An emphasis will be placed on the use of appropriate functions to model real-world situations and solve problems … Read more
