Learn how to use the concept of similarity to measure distance indirec tly, using methods involving similar triangles, shadows, and transits. Apply basic right-angle trigonometry to learn about the relationships among steepness, angle of elevation, and height-to-distance ratio. Us e trigonometric ratios to solve problems involving right triangles.
Examine how to collect and compare data from observational and experim ental studies, and learn how to set up your own experimental studies.
Review and explore transformations such as translation, reflection, an d rotation. Apply these ideas to solve more complex geometric problems . Use your knowledge of properties of figures to reason through, solve , and justify your solutions to problems. Analyze and prove the midlin e theorem.
Examine the relationships between area and perimeter when one measure is fixed. Determine which shapes maximize area while minimizing perime ter, and vice versa. Explore the proportional relationship between sur face area and volume. Construct open-box containers, and use graphs to approximate the dimensions of the resulting rectangular prism that ho lds the maximum volume.
