Geometry May 9th

I haven't posted on here for a while, because I didn't feel like people were using the information, and I haven't had time. I took a picture of the board with the notes on it today, as well as a picture of the homework, so I thought I'd attach those just in case. We are working on surface area of prisms, specifically rectangular and triangular.
The next picture is the homework due Thursday:

Geometry April 16th - 20th

We had state testing this week, so it was pretty uneventful.
Monday through Wednesday most students were taking their state test.
Thursday (today) we looked at areas of sectors of circles. To find the area of a sector we use a proportion and cross multiply to solve. 
HW: Pg. 784 #5-7, 18-23
Friday we will be looking at the areas of trapezoids, rhombi, and kites. I'm not sure if I will get notes on here, but I will attach the worksheet that will be homework Friday night.

Geometry Honors April 16 - 20th

I haven't had time to get info on here this week. 
Monday we did volume & surface area of pyramids. We just had 2 problems on the board for homework.
Tuesday we talked about volume of prisms. I'll attach the problems we worked on dealing with chlorinating a swimming pool and resurfacing a track.
Wednesday we went over the pool problem and looked more at volume of prisms. 
HW was Pg. 850 #1,2, 10-12, 16-18
Thursday we spent extra time calculating our warm-up problem which was the square footage of a picket fence. We didn't have time to get to the area of regular polygons as planned, we'll do that tomorrow. The second attached sheet will be the homework for Friday.

Geometry April 12th

We went over last nights 2 problem homework and worked on similar triangles today. Each time we set them up into 2 equal fractions, and then cross multiply and divide.

We started going over volume and surface area today. We focused on cones, we'll probably add pyramids tomorrow. The homework is attached.

Geometry April 11th, State Test Review

We reviewed systems of equations today. Since it's all review "stuff" I won't be putting notes on here this week. Tonight we had a whopping 2 problems of homework.

Geometry Honors April 10th

We reviewed in class today for a test over circles on Wednesday. Students only homework was to prepare a note card of info to be used on the test. I am attaching some review problems for extra practice. If you can find a way to print them, get them done and bring them to class on Wednesday, I'll give you some extra credit. I put the answers on there so you could check your work. 
The only way I could get it on here from my test program was to have them in kind of screwy order, but it's practice problems either way.


Remember for your test:
LABEL with cm, m, mi, in, whenever possible!!


HW: Notecard DUN!
