I apologize for getting this out late this week. Yesterday was an unexpected day full of unexpected surprises. I hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving holiday. I sure enjoyed spending time in New York City with my sister but planned to be back for school Monday. And in fact, I was back but I was stranded and unable to get to my car or to school. So a BIG APOLOGY to my A day classes for a bit of a rough day. We will make up for it on Wednesday and have it be so that B day learns the material first. Here is what to expect the rest of the week...
Geometry:
Nov 29th/Dec 1st Day 10
We discovered the properties of our final quadrilateral...the Trapezoid! We also discussed the differences between any trapezoid and an isosceles trapezoid. (A day classes, we will review all of this on Wednesday.)
HOMEWORK: Trapezoid wkst/Pg 442 #13-18
Mini-Test on all Quadrilaterals next class Dec 2nd/3rd. MEMORIZE all the properties of each quadrilateral!
Dec 2nd/3rd Day 11
We will take a mini-test on quadrilaterals. After the mini-test, we will learn what a polygon is, the difference between a regular and a non-regular polygon, and how to recognize a concave vs. convex polygon.
HOMEWORK: Pg 48 #2, 4-6, 12-18, 39-44
Algebra II
Nov 29th/Dec 1st Day 10
We started our next unit! Chapter 7 Radical Functions and Rational Exponents. To start us off in Section 7-1 we reviewed the properties of exponents (pg 368 in the textbook) then we learned all about roots and radical expressions.
HOMEWORK: Pg 368 #1-23 (columns 1,2), Pg 372 #3, 5, 10-28 (evens), 33, 34, 44, 48
Dec 2nd/3rd Day 11
We will be learning two sections 7-2 and 7-3 on Multiplying and Dividing Radical Expressions and Binomial Radical Expressions.
HOMEWORK: Pg 377 #3-33(multiples of 3, skip 30), 43, 53, 77-79
Mini-Test next class Dec 6th/7th on sections 7-1 through 7-3!!
