There will not be a homework packet this week. There will be a test on October 12, 2017.

 The next binder check is Friday, October 31, 2017.

  Conditional statements can be rewritten as a converse, an inverse and a contrapositive. The ~ infront of p and q stands for no / not.



Here are examples of statements turned into conditional statements. Can you generate the converse, inverse and contrapositive of each conditional statement?

Next week, we will revisit translations in terms of vectors.

Personal Finance

We are discussing Federal and States Taxes. We generated a mock W2 form and filled out a fake 1040 EZ form. Tomorrow we will take the pre semester exam.

Review for the Quiz Tomorrow!

Here are examples of different transformations done in various hours of the day. Can you identify the rule for each transformation provided?

The Segment Addition Postulate is very important for these problems. The setup is key!

Week 3 and 4

In Geometry ... we covered Inductive Reasoning.



Now, we are describing images based off of the postulates.



Postulates are:
Through any 2 points, there is exactly one line.
Through any 3 noncollinear points, there is exactly one plane.
If 2 points lie on a plane, then those points (forming the line) are on the plane.
If 2 lines interest, then there is one intersection point.
If 2 planes intersect, then there is one line of intersection.

Week 2 Additional Notes!

In Geometry ...
We are talking about angles.

In Personal Finance ...
We are talking about Salaries and Commissions. Tomorrow I will post some questions about salaries versus commissions.
For the amount made daily, we figured out reasonable working days. From 365 days a typical year, we eliminated federal holidays, bank holidays, and weekends.
