Geometry with Algebraic Topics Regular /

Credit gained: 1 high school credit upon successful completion

Prerequisites

To enroll in the ACS Athens Virtual Geometry with Algebraic Topics course students must meet the criteria below:

Student performance in the first quarter of the current face-to-face Algebra 1 (HS) or Foundations of Geometry course will be evaluated with an emphasis on Quarter 1 assessments. Students are expected to perform B and above to be considered for any of the math online courses.
Teacher’s recommendation.
Counselor’s input to ensure alignment with the student’s academic path.

Course description

This course is a study of topics in Geometry with Algebra Topics in Geometry include: angles, parallel lines, triangles, quadrilaterals, polygons, circles, areas and volume. Algebraic topics include: algebraic expressions, factoring, rational expressions, linear & quadratic equations, nonlinear systems of non - linear equations, graphing in the coordinate plane, right angle and non-right angle trigonometry. Algebraic skills will be incorporated in all topics of Geometry.

*Upon successful completion of this virtual course, students will be required to take a face-to-face placement test, which will be scheduled a week after the final exams, to determine accurate placement in their next on-campus Mathematics course at ACS Athens:

To progress from Geometry with Algebraic Topics to Algebra 2 & Trigonometry, students must earn a passing grade on both their Geometry with Algebraic Topics Regular virtual course and the face-to-face placement test.
To progress from Geometry with Algebraic Topics to IB Applications & Interpretations SL, students must earn a B- or above on both their Geometry with Algebraic Topics Regular virtual course and the face-to-face placement test.
