This is a 2 credit equivalent, flexibly paced, asynchronous Honors course within the Online Honors Program. Students can expect 6-8 hours of coursework per week and have 30-34 weeks to complete the course depending on start date. Session dates: January 24 - August 15, 2024.
Geometry Honors includes, but is not limited to, the structure of plane and solid geometry, coordinate geometry, and calculations involving areas and volumes of geometric figures. Creative problem solving is emphasized throughout the course along with the skills of formulating convincing arguments (mathematical proof). With the understanding of the basic concepts of geometry (both synthetic and coordinate geometry), students engage in higher order mathematical thought to solve problems and prove statements in plane and solid geometry.
Success in this course and Geometry Honors provides students with the foundation needed to take Pre-Calculus Honors.
Prerequisite: Algebra I
