EML 445 Mathematics: Geometry and Measurement (CM)
Math endorsement candidates develop conceptual understanding of geometric properties and relationships as they apply to congruence, similarity, geometric figures, and the Cartesian Coordinate System. Topics include modeling and solving real life and mathematical problems involving proof of theorems; congruence, similarity, and transformations; physical and technological constructions; lines, angle measure, area, surface area, and volume; classification, visualization, and description of two-dimensional figures and three-dimensional objects and the relationships among them; rigid motion; Pythagorean Theorem; angles, radii, arcs, chords, sectors of circles, and conic sections. Upon successful completion of this course, candidates have content knowledge to help K-12 students become college and career ready in geometry and measurement.
Outcomes
- This course will prepare students to:
- Develop conceptual understanding of and procedural facility in geometry and measurement.
- Apply standards of mathematical practice in geometry and measurement.
