Congruent Triangle Proof TEST Tomorrow! 

All proofs in Chapter 4.

Test Specs:
ID congruent triangles and tell why        20 pts
Proofs                                                           80 pts
    2 Fill-In-The-Blank

HINT:
Don’t forget to go back and practice proofs from pg 204 & 210 in the textbook….those are more difficult than the practice worksheet!!

I’ll check in at 7:30 & 10:00 for questions. 
I’ll be in the classroom at 7:00 tomorrow morning.

Study!

Proof TEST Tomorrow! 

Test Specs:
2 Fill-in-the-Blank Proofs
8 “From Scratch” Proofs
(1 of the 8 an Algebraic Proof)
Helpful Hints….
Practice with the proofs we have completed in class.  Cover the Reason column and try to name them without “peeking”.  Then progress to covering both the Statement AND Reason column.  The proofs on the test will be VERY similar to those worked in class.

I’ll check in at 8:30 & 10:00 for questions. 
I’ll be in the classroom at 7:00 on Wednesday.

Coordinate Geometry TEST Tomorrow! 

Test Specs:
Distance / Midpoint   24 pts
Slope   12 pts
Parallel/Perpendicular/Neither   8 pts
Graphing   15 pts
Writing Equations   32 pts
Derive the Distance Formula   8 pts

Helpful Hints….
I might ask you find the other endpoint, given one endpoint and the midpoint.
When you derive the distance formula you may use diagrams, but you must write an explanation in complete sentences.  You need to explain your diagram and what is happening to “arrive” at distance formula.

I’ll check in at 8:30 & 10:00 for questions. 
I’ll be in the classroom at 7:00 on Wednesday.

ID Hypothesis / Conclusion  9 pts
Inverse/Converse/Contrapositive   9 pts
ID Laws of Logic   30 pts

Remember….The best way to study for a math test is to practice!!  Go back and work through problems from homework and our review.

I’ll check in at 8:30 & 10:00 for questions. 
I’ll be in the classroom at 7:00 on Wednesday.
