Tues 8/17/10

HW: What is geometry?
READ THIS ONE AND OTHER DAYS' POSTS.
NOTE: Chapter 1 TEST next Thursday 8/26!!!!!!! study and be ready :)
A pretest (sample test) will be given next week before Thursday.

Hi everyone,
Today we went over a few problems from Pg 32-33 (section 1-4). Hopefully you now understand how to label segments and their lengths. Also, you should know how to apply the Pythagorean Theorem and the distance formula.
It is important that you recognize all the perfect square numbers between 1 and 625.
Make sure you turn in your HW from section 1-4 by tomorrow at the latest. Most of you finished it in class today. Good.

We also started section 1-5 on Midpoints and Congruent Segments. We began to define MIDPOINT in a few different but equivalent ways. SEE YOU TOMORROW :)

Q: how do mathematicians compute pi to a million decimal places?
