Chapter 11 Assignments

|
During chapter 11, we will work with area.

Chapter 9 Assignments

|
During chapter 9, we will work with circles.

Chapter 8 Assignments

|
During chapter 8, we will study right triangles, including two very special right triangles, the Pythagorean Theorem, and a little introductory trigonometry.

Chapter 6-7 Assignments

|
During chapters 6-7, we will study inequalities in triangles, proportions, and similar triangles.

Chapter 5 Assignments

|
During chapter 5, we will work quadrilaterals, focusing on parallelograms.

Chapter 4 Assignments

|
During chapter 4, we will study congruent triangles, how to prove triangles are congruent, and how to use congruent triangles to prove other things.

Chapter 1-3 Assignments

|
During chapters 1-3 we will begin our study of geometry with some basic definitions. Then we will begin to build on these as we work with parallel lines and planes.

Tessellations 2011

|
Honors Geometry students have been learning about tessellations, including which polygons will tessellate in which types of tessellation. They have also been learning how M.C. Escher created his famous tessellation art.

The following tessellations were done using rotation of the sides of a square:

The following tessellations use a combination of reflection and rotation:
