Wednesday, September 16

Geometry - We focused on some of the basic properties of algebra (Sec. 2.5)

HW for Thursday - Complete the Sec. 2.5 - Algebra Properties and the Solving One-Variable Equations worksheets that were distributed in class today.

Note:  I omitted one important property from our discussion today ... the Substitution Property.  This property tells us that if two quantities are equal then we can always replace (or substitute) one for the other anywhere in the equation.  
EX:  If b = 3 and a + b = 10, the a + 3 = 10.


Modern Math - We began our discussion of the relationship between gnomons and similar figures (Sec. 13.3).

HW for Thursday - Complete the Gnomon Packet that was distributed in class today.
