The Week Before Memorial Day ....

In Honors Geometry ... we will be transitioning on to trigonometry: sine, cosine, and tangent. These trigonometric concepts can be applied to right triangles. We will wrap up our exploration on Monday of 45 90 45 and 30 60 90 right triangles. More videos to come.

In Algebra ... we will continue graphing systems of linear inequalities and exploring the real world scenarios involving them. For example, here is one:

Jeremy is an artist who creates sculptures and draws paintings. For an upcoming arts festival Jeremy wants to create some sculptures and paintings and needs to determine how many sculptures and paintings he will have ready for the festival. Jeremy figures that each sculpture would take him 30 hours to create and each painting would take 15 hours. For the festival Jeremy wants to have at least 5 sculptures and 6 paintings to display. If Jeremy has 300 hours of work time available, which of the following systems of linear inequalities can help him determine how many sculptures and paintings he will have for the festival? 

What do you think the answer will be?

From Friday in class, we practiced graphing. We will do more on Monday.

Here are the practice problems we did in class.
