Honors Geometry is a fast paced course, requiring students to develop both deductive and inductive reasoning skills. Students will work with the language and logic of geometry, reflections, concepts of congruence and similarity, discover and prove properties of polygons and circles, study area and volume relationships, and apply the Pythagorean Theorem. A higher-level of algebraic applications will be stressed and a heavier emphasis on formal proofs will be required. Work with indirect proofs will also be addressed as well an introduction to trigonometry. It stresses higher- level Algebra applications and more intense analysis with the proofs. The course addresses much of the same material as Geometry (Course 222). Honors Geometry stresses proofs of triangles, parallelograms, and circles. It also includes constructions, ratios, and an introduction to trigonometry. A scientific calculator is required.

Prerequisites: A final grade of 90% or higher in Algebra II OR 93% or higher in Algebra I
