Geometry Online

​Geometry is a full year, high school math course for the student who has successfully completed the prerequisite course, Algebra I. The course focuses on the skills and methods of linear, coordinate, and plane geometry.

These supplementary videos are in addition to the video instruction of your online lessons and work with the Academy teachers. They are not the curriculum but are aligned to the daily lesson material. Students should work in their online curriculum, with their NFC Academy teacher and use these videos in their learning process as needed.

Then view the videos which show step-by-step the construction details.  First, you will see how to construct triangles with specific parts. Sometimes the lengths of the sides will be given; sometimes an angle measure will also be stated. To think about constructing a triangle given its three sides, remember the triangle inequality theorem. It states that the sum of the two sides of a triangle is greater than the third side. This statement lets you know that the other two sides will intersect somewhere off the third side. Follow the directions given to you to complete this assignment.
