Finishing Up our Triangles and Trigonometry Unit
This week we will be finishing up our triangles and trigonometry unit. We will spend Monday of the week reviewing our non-right triangle solving tools: Law of Sines and Law of Cosines. We will also learn about a new formula to find the area of a triangle using trigonometry. On our second day of class for the week we will review for our summative and during our third class (either Wednesday or Thursday, depending on your class period), we will complete our summative assessment. This summative will contain two learning targets: I can solve right triangles (3d) and I can solve for missing measurements (3c). The first learning target will focus on Pythagorean Theorem, special right triangles and right triangle trigonometry. The second learning target will focus on non-right triangle trigonometry.
If you would like some additional help preparing for the summative please ask! I am available each day at 7am for extra help and welcome any and all questions!
Unit 7 Summative Retakes on Similarity
This is just a reminder that we are finishing up our eighth unit so that means that summative retakes for unit 7 must be completed BEFORE you complete your unit 8 summative. Please arrange a time ASAP to take care of this if you are interested. You will need to have your corrections and extra practice complete before you are retake eligible.
Circles
On our last day of class for the week, we will begin our unit on circles. We will talk about the different parts related to circles. Some will be familiar: center, radius, diameter; some will be new: secant, tangent, chord. We will also learn how to write the equation for a circle on the coordinate plane.
