Ch 11 The Right Triangle

The next chapter provides a connection between similarity and right triangles. It then gives us our introduction to trigonometry. I have lots of supplementary materials so the seven lessons of the chapter will take three weeks.

2/28  Similarity and Right Triangles (lessons 1 and 2)
          HW p.431-432/Set 2 and p.438-440/42-50, 53-57
2/29  Special Right Triangles (lesson 3)
          HW p.445-447/Set 2
3/01  Extra Practice with Right Triangles
          HW finish worksheet of problems
3/02  The Tangent Ratio (lesson 4)
          HW p.450-453/17-34, Sets 2 and 3

3/06  Sine and Cosine Ratios (lesson 5)
          HW p.458-460/Sets 2 and 3
3/07  Mixed Practice
          HW Worksheet of Word Problems (plus...)
3/08  Slope (lesson 6)
          HW Coordinate Geometry and trigonometry worksheet
3/09  An Area Formula, the Law of Sines and the Law of Cosines (lesson 7)
          HW p.472-474/Sets 2 and 3
       
3/13  Extending the Law of Sines and the Law of Cosines
          HW Worksheet of extension problems
3/14  Mixed Problems, "Solving" Triangles
          HW Worksheet of extra problems
3/15  Review (summary p.475)
          HW p.478-480/35-64
3/16  Ch 11 Test of Trig and Right Triangles

Remember that the English MCAS is 3/20 - 3/22 so we will go over last year's MCAS test on 3/20.
