Lesson 9.3 Rotations Learning Objectives: ! 1. Dene a Rotation ! 2. Identify rotations in geometry ! 3. Perform a rotation

The next type of transformation you will encounter will be the rotation. This is like a hand turning around a clock or a merry-go-round at a playground. Rotations can be clockwise (to the right) or counter-clockwise (to the left). When looking at your book, however, all rotations are counter-clockwise, so make sure you remember this! Rotations will change an objects position and orientation, but not the size or shape, so every rotation is also an isometry (equal is size and shape). Rotations happen around a single point called the center and are measured in degrees. The degree measurement is the same as angles and ranges from 0 degrees to 360 degrees. You can go negative, or over 360 degrees, however just like a circle, there are 360 degrees total. So basically, if you rotate an object 360 degrees, then it would end up in the exact same spot.

Lesson 11.3A Surface Areas of Pyramids Learning Objectives: ! 1. Be able to correctly identify and use pyramids ! 2. Find the surface area of pyramids

A pyramid is a polyhedron in which one face (the base) can be any polygon and the other faces (the lateral faces) are triangles that meet at a common vertex, which is called the vertex of the pyramid. You can name the pyramid by the shape of its base, such as a hexagonal prism (if the base was a hexagon). Get your notes out and get ready to learn all about the surface area of a pyramid.

Lesson 11.3B Surface area of Cones Learning Objectives: ! 1. Be able to correctly identify and use cones ! 2. Find the surface area of cones

A cone is pointed like a pyramid, however its base is a circle. The circumference of the circle becomes the lower edge to the lateral area that you will be finding. In a right cone, the altitude is a perpendicular segment from the vertex to the center of the base. The slant height is the distance from the vertex to a point on the circumference of the circle.

Lesson 11.4A Volumes of Prisms and Cylinders Learning Objectives: ! 1. Dene volume as applied to geometry ! 2. Find the volume of a prism ! 3. Find the volume of a cylinder

This is your very first lesson with volume, so its important that you pay attention and take great notes. Volume is the three-dimensional space that a figure occupies. It is measured in cubic units such as cubic inches, cubic feet, or cubic centimeters. You can think of volume as the amount of water that could fit into something. This lesson will teach you how to find the volume of polyhedrons, specifically of prisms and cylinders. Assignment: Reading Assignment: 624-629 Assessment: Complete and turn in worksheet 11.4A

Lesson 12.1 Tangent Lines Learning Objectives: ! 1. Use the relationship between a radius and a tangent line ! 2. Use the relationships between two tangents from one point

A tangent to a circle is a line in the plane of the circle that intersects the circle in exactly one point. The point where a circle and a tangent intersect is the point of tangency. This lesson will lead you through the process of defining tangency as well as being able to prove or disprove its existence. Once you have mastered these skills it will be possible to complete your homework and your quizzes and tests.

Lesson 12.2 Chords and Arcs Learning Objectives: ! 1. Use congruent chords, arcs, and central angles ! 2. Recognize properties of lines through the center of a circle

A segment whose endpoints are on a circle is called a chord. The theorem you will learn in this chapter is about related central angles, chords, and arcs. It says, for example, that if two central angles in a circle are congruent, then so are the two chords and two arcs that the angles intercept.

Lesson 12.3 Inscribed Angles Learning Objectives: ! 1. Find the measure of an inscribed angle ! 2. Find the measure of an angle formed by a tangent and a chord

An inscribed angle is an angle formed by two chords in a circle which have a common endpoint. This common endpoint forms the vertex of the inscribed angle. The other two endpoints dene what we call an intercepted arc on the circle. The intercepted arc might be thought of as the part of the circle which is "inside" the inscribed angle. (See the pink part of the circle in the picture above.) A central angle is any angle whose vertex is located at the center of a circle. A central angle necessarily passes through two points on the circle, which in turn divide the circle into two arcs: a major arc and a minor arc. The minor arc is the smaller of the two arcs, while the major arc is the bigger. We dene the arc angle to be the measure of the central angle which intercepts it. The Inscribed Angle Conjecture I gives the relationship between the measures of an inscribed angle and the intercepted arc angle. It says that the measure of the intercepted arc is twice that of the inscribed angle. The precise statements of the conjectures are given below. Each conjecture has a linked Sketch Pad demonstration to illustrate its truth (proof by Geometer's Sketch Pad!). The linked activities sheet also include directions for further "hands on" investigations involving these conjectures, as well as geometric problems which utilize their results.

Lesson 12.4 Angle Measurements and Segment Lengths Learning Objectives: ! 1. Find the measures of angles formed by chords, secants, and tangents ! 2. Find the lengths of segments associated with circles

In this lesson you will nd the at a point on the circle made by two given points on the circle. Note that when moving the point P, the inscribed angle is constant while it is in the major arc formed by A,B. Given two points A and B, lines from them to a third point P form the inscribed angle APB. As you drag the point P above, notice that the inscribed angle is constant. It only depends on the position of A and B. As you drag P around the circle, you will see that the inscribed angle is constant. But when P is in the minor arc (shortest arc between A and B), the angle is still constant, but is the supplement of the usual measure. That is, it is 180-m, where is m is the usual measure.

Lesson 12.5 Circles in the Coordinate Plane Learning Objectives: ! 1. Write an equation of a circle ! 2. Find the center and radius of a circle

What if you were given the length of the radius of a circle and the coordinates of its center? How could you write the equation of the circle in the coordinate plane? After completing this Concept, you'll be able to write the standard equation of a circle. Recall that a circle is the set of all points in a plane that are the same distance from the center. This denition can be used to nd an equation of a circle in the coordinate plane. The center does not always have to be on (0, 0). If it is not, then we label the center (h, k) . We would then use the Distance Formula to nd the length of the radius. Assignment: Reading Assignment: 695-699 Assessment: Complete and turn in worksheet 12.5

Lesson 12.6 Locus: A Set of Points Learning Objectives: ! 1. Dene a Locus ! 2. Draw a Locus ! 3. Describe a Locus A locus is a set of points which satisfies a certain condition. As seen by the headlights (and taillights) in the picture on the left, a locus of points (the headlights or taillights) is the path traced out by the moving points under given conditions (following the road). Think of a locus as a "bunch" of points that all do the same thing. In Latin, the word locus means place. The plural of locus is loci.

There are basic theorems for the locus. Each theorem will be explained in detail in the following sections under this topic. Even though the theorems sound confusing, the concepts are easy to understand.
