It is in Algebra 2 that students pull together
Geometry includes the study of shapes and and apply the accumulation of learning that
their connections to the world. Students will they have from their previous courses. They
start with the basic figures of point, line, and apply methods from probability and
plane to develop and prove theorems as well statistics to draw inferences and conclusions
as understand postulates. Key concepts from data. Students expand their repertoire
addressed are: transformations and of functions to include polynomial, rational,
symmetry, similarity and congruence, right and radical functions. They expand their
triangle trigonometry, properties and study of right triangle trigonometry to
measurements of plane figures, three- include the unit circle. Finally, students
dimensional shapes, investigation and proof, bring together all of their experience with
geometric construction, and algebra and functions and geometry to create models and
