This intensive course covers the standard full-year geometry curriculum. Geometry exposes students to topics in Euclidean geometry and to logic with deductive proofs. Students study polygon properties and theorems (major focus on triangles), circles, congruence and similarity, trigonometric ratios, and areas and volumes. Upon successful completion of this course, students are prepared for the next-level math course.
Students attending the SummerSessions at Friends Select for course credit are expected to attend each day of class. A student will be denied credit for a summer academic course if they miss more than THREE class periods of that course. Students who miss more than the permitted number of class periods will receive either an “Audit” or a “Withdrawal” depending upon the particular circumstances. The teacher, in consultation with the Math Department Chair, may grant individual waivers to the maximum absence policy under extenuating circumstances.
