distancia Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 (edited) For those of you who have the MUS Geometry book, I have a question. Does the book open with an introduction to points, lines, rays, angles, circumference of a circle, etc? I mean, does it start from the very beginning of Geometry, on the assumption that the student may not have had Geometry along the way? Or does it pick up beyond the volume of a cylinder? My D took a whole year of Geometry in public h/s and only some of it "stuck". She now needs a refresher/review....she remembers some Geometry from middle school, such as the Pythagorean theorem, and the area of a parallelogram is the same as a rectangle; that kind of thing. I hate to bring her all the way back to Middle School if not necessary. I am hoping that just by working in the MUS Geometry book, a lesson a day (plus or minus) will be enough to refresh her and clarify some issues before she proceeds on to Pre-Calc and Trig. Thanks.

Pam L in Mid Tenn Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 It starts at the very beginning defining points, lines, rays, etc. It then moves to angles... vertical, corresponding, supplementary,etc. Volumes come in the middle of the book. Proof are toward the end. It should be do-able by anyone that has not had any geometry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
