Basics of Geometry

In Honors Geometry this week we'll continue our study of the Basics of Geometry.  We will start the week by performing basic constructions using a compass and a straight edge.  We will be able to accurately duplicate segments and angles.  We will also be able to bisect angles and construct perpendicular bisectors.  On our second day of class for the week we will have our first formative assessment.  The formative assessment will focus on applying the vocabulary we have learned about during the first week of class.  We will also focus on using the segment and angle addition postulates.  We will finish up the week by talking about deductive reasoning and start applying Geometric concepts to the coordinate plane.
