EMPTY folders- put papers in your binders. ONLY keep weekly warm up sheet and current day’s classwork in folders. Warm-up- silently please REVIEW SLIDES pg. 245: 1-3 include sketch and given information (as always!) Honors Geometry 28 Nov 2011
altitude the perpendicular segment from a vertex to the opposite side or a line containing the opposite side
midsegment- the segment that connects the midpoints of two sides of a triangle midsegment
median- the segment connecting the vertex of a triangle to the midpoint of its opposite side median
Review Symmetry Line in An Isosceles Triangle Vertex Angle Bisector Conjecture: In an isosceles triangle, the bisector of the vertex angle is also a median and an altitude. bisector median altitude 12 A B C D
Objective Students will learn the definitions of special quadrilaterals and explore the sum of exterior angles of a polygon. Students will take notes, do an investigation and apply properties to solve problems.
DUE Tuesday, Nov. 29: Finish Handout 4.8 Proving Special Triangle Conjectures (need a copy? see DG4 PYSA link to PDF on my wiki page) Due Wed/Th, Nov. 30/Dec 1 pg. 260: 6 – 8 pg. 264: 5 – 8, 16
