Teacher: Leonard Beqiraj
Course Name: Introduction
Standard_1: Std 2.3.11 - A. Select and use appropriate units and tools to measure to the degree of accuracy required in particular measurement
situations
Standard_2: Std 2.2.11 - B. Use estimation to solve problems for which an exact answer is not needed.
Standard_3: Std 2.2.11 - E. Recognize that the degree of precision needed in calculating a number depends on how the results will be used and the
instruments used to generate the measure.
Standard_4: Std 2.3.11 - B. Measure and compare angles in degrees and radians.
Standard_5: Std 2.5.11 - A. Select and use appropriate mathematical concepts and techniques from different areas of mathematics and apply them
to solving non-routine and multi-step problems.
Standard_6: Std 2.5.11 - B. Use symbols, mathematical terminology, standard notation, mathematical rules, graphing and other types of
mathematical representations to communicate observations, predictions, concepts, procedures, generalizations, ideas and results.
Introduction: Students will discover that geometry is a way of thinking about and seeing the world. They will become aware of geometry in nature,
art, and cultures around the world. Within this discovery, students will be introduced to various construction tools and define terms in
this chapter that they will use throughout the course. Synthetic and analytic deductive approaches to geometry will be integrated in this
chapter and throughout the course.
