Gain the foundational skills of Geometry -- including two and three dimensional shapes, lines, rays, and figures in a plane; use deductive and analytical reasoning, logic, and problem solving skills that connect Algebra and Geometry. Part 2 of 2, for High School Students.
How to get the most out of Jurgensen, Brown, Jurgensen Geometry, Part Two with Jean Hoeft:
-
First, read the course materials below before the first class meeting.
-
Then have a notebook ready and available for class notes each live session.
-
Read assignments before class meetings
-
Watch that week’s recording if you need to revisit information from our live session.
-
Do the assignments, quizzes, and any extra work assigned for that week.
-
Once the course is completed to the parent's and professor’s satisfaction, there is a Certificate of Completion at the end to be filled in for your records.
Special notes: This is Part Two of a two-part course. .

Course Description: Students will study two and three-dimensional shapes as well as lines, rays, and similar figures in a plane. Deductive reasoning will be used throughout the text to immerse students in proofs and the varying postulants and theorems that are used. Basic as well as more advanced constructions will be used along with algebra to connect algebra with the geometry that they are learning. We will be using the college entrance tests as a guide for the tests and quizzes so that students are familiar with the types of questions they will be expected to know and answer.
