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.
Thm's 3-8 and 3-9 actually make for a difficult proof for a beginning Geometry Student, not to mention a struggling geometry teacher. For now, put them in your G.B., draw a diagram and skip the proof. We can treat them almost in a postulate type of manner. Later in the year we will discuss the concept of "Indirect Reasoning" (sounds like an appropriate topic for our class, huh?) and see how some geometriticians have arrived at proofs for these theorems. As Plato once said, "for now we accept these theorems without proof."
for the proofs of theorem 3-8 and 3-9 where is the given and the prove?

ReplyDeletewow #25 IS HARDD. help please?
ReplyDeletepish posh #25?... a piece of easy pi...
ReplyDeleteThe two given segments are perp to the same segment, so by thm 3-7, they are || to each other, yes?
So now you gotsk a pair of || lines... that means that segment BD is a transversal between two || lines, yes?
SOOO, do angles 1 & 2 have a defined relationship? Yes indeedy-do-dah dey do!
?Que es tu problema, Diego?
CRASH AND BURN BABY, CRASH AND BURN!!!
ReplyDeleteMoy & Chisu
For once I agree. I think that makes a much better name for the two of you, instead of 'Chisu and Moy'... especially considering today's quiz results!
