GeometryDescription
Geometry is everywhere! Engineers use geometry to build highways and bridges. Artists use geometry to create perspective in their paintings, and mapmakers help travelers find things using the points located on a geometric grid. Throughout this course, you will travel a mathematical highway illuminated by spatial relationships, reasoning, connections, and problem-solving.Please note that this is a Credit Recovery course. Credit Recovery courses are not NCAA approved and should not be used by student athletes attempting to recover credits.Module One: Geometry Foundations
