Course Summary

Geometry studies points, lines, angles, shapes, and solids. In this course, you'll learn about coordinate geometry, transformations, polygons, theorems, and apply geometry to solve real-world problems involving area, volume, and probability. You'll also study right triangles, trigonometry, and circles.
