Use coordinates to prove simple geometric theorems algebraically.

Clarifications:

Essential Understandings

Concrete:

  • When presented with points, identify the shape.
Representation:
  • When given points, plot the points to create a shape.
  • Identify formulas for shape.
  • Using the relationships created by the coordinates, identify the shape.
  • Calculate measures using formulas.

Date Adopted or Revised: 07/14 Cluster: Use coordinates to prove simple geometric theorems algebraically. (Geometry - Major Cluster)

Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.
