Last week we finished up our fourth unit on triangle congruence relationships. Students who are interested in a summative retake must have this completed by Monday, November 23rd. A student must:
- Make corrections on the original assessment
- Complete the customized extra practice
- Please e-mail me to let me know which sections you plan to retake. I will then send you your personalized extra practice.
- Complete the retake by Monday, November 23rd.
Please note, the score on the second assessment will be recorded in Infinite Campus even if the score is lower than the original assessment. Please see me if you have any questions.
Relationships in Triangles
Last week we started our fifth unit on relationships in triangles. We reviewed a little bit about the properties of the midsegments of a triangle as well as the triangle inequality theorem. This week we will continue our study into the other relationships that exist within triangles. We will further investigate angle-side relationships. We will also talk about points of concurrency that exist in a triangle. (Basically this is a fancy way to say that we're going to look at a point where a bunch of lines meet.).
For this investigation we will be constructing points of concurrency so students will need to have a compass and a straight edge. We will also try to complete some of these constructions electronically, so students will need to have the "Geometry: Constructions Tutor (Lite)" installed on their iPads. This is a free app available through the App store.
This will be a quick unit that we will finish up prior to Thanksgiving break. Please make sure that you are staying on top of your homework assignments and please ask questions as they come up!
