This Blog exists for the collective benefit of all geometry students. While the posts are specific to Mr. Chamberlain's class, any and all "geometricians" are welcome. The more specific your question (including your own attempts to answer it) the better.
in number 1-7 the directions state name the DEFINITON, postulate or blah blah blah. we only have one defition (def. of midpoint). in our geometry bible. So do we need to add more? like def. of a bisect of def. of opposite rays or something?
The more definitions you have in your Bible the better. It is good to add them in as you need them alongside the Theorems. Don't be afraid to REPEAT a definition... the more times you write it the better chance it has to sink in. The BIBLE is YOUR tool... one student's can look different than another.
i now know that nick is nick moy... i was told to come on here at 8. so i will return. MWAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAH. o and when we write the postulates and schemegegys into our bible is it cool if its color coded?
It is beyond cool to use color... it is SUPER COOL... there are occasional awards given out for BEST BIBLE (I actually do bible readings, you can check with last year's class)... use of color AND space can even overcome challenges faced by the handwriting-impaired!
P.S. Typing algebra on a computer is FUN & EASY... just like factoring! (btw, you will have to factor again b4 this class is thru!)
Actually, in 12c, they were looking for you to measure your drawing. Now that you understand the problem, do you see that you could draw ANY Ray-MP, and the same angle would be formed by the angle bisectors. Nick's explanation above answers 12d.
We can/will go over it in class... they are expecting you to fill in the reasons for the proof... the reason for stmt 2 is the RULER POSTULATE (that gets everybody!)... you should be able to try some of the remaining stmts

Pg46, #2
ReplyDeleteIs that def. of angle bisector, or something else?
The one below it is Def. of angle bisector for sure, though...
For number 13 where do they get 'x' from??
ReplyDeleteLine segment LX is what you start with;X is arbitrary
ReplyDeleteand also, how do you explain number 12c?
ReplyDeleteBecause m<lmp+m<pmn =180, then 1/2(m<lmp+m<pmn)=90
ReplyDeleteDoes that make sense?
Typing algebra on a computer is annoying, so I'm being minimalist.

ReplyDeleteAre there any questions remaining from pgs 42-43 #11-15?? NOW is the time to ask.
ReplyDeletehelloo, this is a little late but i dont understand the question theyre asking on 19
ReplyDeleteThis is a tough one. THANKS FOR ASKING!!!!!!!!!

Based on the blog response... the only hw problem we have to review is #19, am I correct?
ReplyDeleteSorry I felt sick and didn't get a chance to post anything I just wanted to let you know I'm looking
