The course seeks to deepen BSED Math students’ understanding of Euclidean geometry and to sharpen reasoning skills in preparation for mathematics teaching and readiness for higher mathematics. Learning of concepts, postulates, and theorems will be through inductive and deductive methods of reasoning with emphases on mathematical investigation, use of ICT and research-based knowledge on learning and teaching. Topics will cover the following: triangle congruence and similarity, circles, polygons, prisms, cylinders, pyramids, and cones.

The course introduces students to circular and trigonometric functions, trigonometric identities, and to the polar coordinate system. The students then apply concepts in these topics to applications in problem solving.
