Geometry Time!

This week in Geometry we are covering parallel lines and how to prove certain angles are congruent. Here is an example ...



In class we have proven AIAT (alternate interior angle theorem), AEAT (alternate exterior angle theorem) and CAT (corresponding angle theorem).

Algebra Time!

This week we are doing an extensive review of linear equations. How to solve them algebraically ...



Here is a picture on how to solve it graphically...
