Welcome to Honors Geometry in 2017! Lots of helpful information will be posted here over the next several months. For now, here's a link to the syllabus.
Probability Test (Final)
SOlutions to Study Guide
Blank Study Guide
Quiz Solutions
Probability Video Clip
EOC
List of animations of constructions
Some Video Clips
Transformations on the xy plane
OTHER EOCT TIPS!
1. It is long, but you have plenty of time to finish. Take your time!
2. Use your scratch paper, or test booklet. Solving problems in your head can result in careless errors.
3. If you're having trouble with a question, skip it and come back later.
4. Use the formula sheet!
5. Most students who fail will score between a 66 & 70. Think to yourself the whole time, "Just get 4 more points!"
6. Even when you think you've gotten "4 more", try to get another 4 more!
7. Eat breakfast and get a good night's sleep.
8. Cellphones, ipods and other electronics must stay out of sight until everyone is done. If you can finish early, you may read a book, draw or sleep.
9. Do not attempt to cheat. A zero for 20% of your grade is not pretty.
10. Have confidence!!!! Don't give up on a question after reading it just once. Read it again, and again if you have to. Don't give up!
11. If you have to guess, then eliminate as many choices as you can first.
Unit 3B - Arc Length, Sector Area, Volume of Circular Solids
Study Guide (Blank)
Solutions to the Study Guide
Videos:
Converting between degrees and radians.
Unit 3A - Circles Relationships with Segments & Angles
Solutions
Segment WS
Quiz (answers)
Study Guide
Video Clips
Angles on the circle maybe more than you need to know.
Segments and Circles
Unit 2 - Similarity and Right Triangles
Solutions to the study guide including the proofs
Videos:
Simplify Radicals (anything past about 12:30 is more than you have to know now)
Special Rt Triangles
Gettin' Triggy Wit It
Backwards Writing Girl Video: Solving a Right Triangle
Here's a very boring video covering the very basics of trigonometry.
A video on using trig to solve a simple problem
A video on using trig to solve word problems.
A video on simply finding trig ratios (just watch the first 5min)
Unit 1D - Parallelograms Test Friday, 9/22
Solutions to the review (except the proofs. I'll get them up later tonight)
Page1 Page2 Page3
Proofs: Numbers 21 & 23
Number 22
Bridges are Due on Sept 13!
Weather Update: We are sticking this due date! Take advantage of the time off to build an awesome bridge!!
You can bring your bridge to my classroom before school on Wednesday if you like. We'll store it safely. I'll write you a pass to 1st block if you arrive close to the bell.
Bridges not ready when your name is drawn will receive a 10pt deduction from the grade you would've made! Don't let this happen to you!
If you lost the papers/rubric, download a new copy.
Go play Cargo Bridge
Unit 1C - Triangles
Solutions to the study Guide
Triangle Congruence Clips:
4min clip on SSS & SAS
5min clip on ASA & AAS
a clip covering HL
Here's a longer clip, but it really does a good job explaining how to write a congruence statement.
And another one. Super annoying guy discusses ASA, AAS & HL.
Also it might be a good idea to watch the proof videos linked below!
