Geometry Units at Glance
(From NJDOE Model Curriculum - each unit is designed to take approximately 30 days.)
Overview
Moving towards formal mathematical arguments, the standards presented in this high school geometry course are meant to formalize and
extend middle grades geometric experiences. Transformations are presented early in the year to assist with the building of conceptual
understandings of the geometric concepts.
In unit 1, triangle congruence conditions are established using analysis of rigid motion and formal constructions. Various formats will be
used to prove theorems about angles, lines, triangles and other polygons. The work in unit 2 will build on the students understanding of
dilations and proportional reasoning to develop a formal understanding of similarity.
The standards included in unit 3 extend the notion of similarity to right triangles and the understanding of right triangle trigonometry. In
developing the Laws of Sines and Cosines, the students are expected to find missing measures of triangles in general, not just right
triangles.
Work in unit 4 will focus on circles and using the rectangular coordinate system to verify geometric properties and to solve geometric
problems. Concepts of similarity will be used to establish the relationship among segments on chords, secants and tangents as well as to
prove basic theorems about circles.
The standards in unit 5 will extend previous understandings of two- dimensional objects in order to explain, visualize, and apply geometric
concepts to three-dimensional objects. Informal explanations of circumference, area and volume formulas will be analyzed.

Grade level: HS
District-Approved Text: Geometry Common Core, Pearson 2012
5 weeks of instruction, 2 weeks of review, enrichment and assessment
Stage 1 – Desired Results
Enduring Understandings/Goals:
Undefined geometric notions form the basis of defining interrelated geometric terms.
Rigid transformations provide a means of understanding congruence, a useful concept in modeling various geometric
situations.
Non-rigid transformations enable us to understand similarity.
Geometric definitions as well as geometric postulates/axioms allow mathematicians to prove geometric theorems.
We can use theorems about angles formed by parallel lines cut by a transversal in order to develop theorems about
triangles and parallelograms.
Essential Questions:
How can we change a figure’s position without changing its size or shape? How can we change a figure’s size without
changing its shape?
How can we represent transformations in the coordinate plane?
Why do congruence transformations, based upon “rigid motions”, preserve distance in figures?
How can “non-rigid” transformations, which preserve angle but not distance, help us understand similarity?
How can we systematically use our understanding of geometric definitions and postulates (axioms) in order to develop
geometric theorems?
Mathematical Practices:
1.
Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
2.
Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
3.
Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.
4.
Model with mathematics.
5.
Use appropriate tools strategically.
6.
Attend to precision.
7.
Look for and make use of structure.
8.
Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.

http://www.state.nj.us/education/modelcurriculum/math/Geometryu2.shtml
Grade level: HS
District-Approved Text: Geometry Common Core, Pearson 2012
5 weeks of instruction, 2 weeks of review, enrichment and assessment
Stage 1 – Desired Results
Enduring Understandings/Goals:
We can understand similar figures by using dilations (non-rigid transformations), which provide the same shape in a
different size.
Angle relationships of similar figures are constant, but not distance relationships.
Dilations, similarity and the properties of similar triangles give rise to the trigonometric ratios, which we can apply to
many real world situations.
Essential Questions:
How can we use our understanding of the features of one figure in order to solve problems relating to a similar figure?
Mathematical Practices:
1.
Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
2.
Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
3.
Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.
4.
Model with mathematics.
5.
Use appropriate tools strategically.
6.
Attend to precision.
7.
Look for and make use of structure.
8.
Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
