Angles Teacher Notes
... This unit is mostly intended to strengthen students’ understanding of what an angle is. A surprising number of students get to high school without a strong sense of this, and therefore are seriously handicapped in geometry. The unit can also be used to reinforce number sense and mental calculations ...

... For the quadrilaterals, I used different markings for each side and each angles. Again, corresponding sides and angles have the same amount of markings For the rectangles, I did not use four different markings although we have four sides. Since opposite sides are equal, I used the same marking for ...

History of geometry
Geometry (from the Ancient Greek: γεωμετρία; geo- ""earth"", -metron ""measurement"") arose as the field of knowledge dealing with spatial relationships. Geometry was one of the two fields of pre-modern mathematics, the other being the study of numbers (arithmetic).Classic geometry was focused in compass and straightedge constructions. Geometry was revolutionized by Euclid, who introduced mathematical rigor and the axiomatic method still in use today. His book, The Elements is widely considered the most influential textbook of all time, and was known to all educated people in the West until the middle of the 20th century.In modern times, geometric concepts have been generalized to a high level of abstraction and complexity, and have been subjected to the methods of calculus and abstract algebra, so that many modern branches of the field are barely recognizable as the descendants of early geometry.
