Geometry High School Level Curriculum 

   The class will prepare students to take the rigorous end-of-year NJ State Geometry exam, covering in depth, all topics in that course. 

    It will begin with Deductive Logic, used in all topics of Geometry (converses, inverses, contra-positives.) 

    We then go to properties and proofs involving parallel and perpendicular lines and move next to the congruence and similarity relationships in triangles. These concepts are also studied for other polygons. Special polygons like right triangles and quadrilaterals are studied intensively.  The class moves into properties of circles, e.g., arcs, chords, angles, and segments in a circle. 

    Coordinate Geometry, areas, and volumes of geometric figures (prisms, pyramids, etc.), transformations of graphs (shifting, stretching), and geometric constructions round out the course,
