MATH Formal Geometry

Comments: Most colleges require this course for admission.

Formal Geometry is a class that takes the Algebra I skills and concepts learned in previous classes and applies them to geometric figures. It also will extend their Algebra skills by developing on skills not discovered in Algebra I. Students will revisit many general geometric topics that have been discussed or drilled in previous years and develop a deeper understanding of those topics or skills. Students will also become more aware of subtle notation differences and develop a math etiquette when writing and expressing math reasoning.
