Learning Target #6

This learning target alludes to recognizing collinear and noncollinear points. I had trouble with realizing that any 2 points can be collinear, but now I know that it is alway possible for 2 points to be collinear, but not always more than 2.

Learning Target #10

Learning target #10 addresses writing a simple, two column proof. I had trouble with this in the beginning because I didn't understand that on the statements side you are supposed to be specific and on the reasons side, you are supposed to be more broad. Now that I understand that and reviewed my notes, writing proofs is a lot easier.

Learning Target #9

Learning Target #9 talks about interpreting geometric diagrams correctly. A diagram problem that I had trouble with was the clock problem. After breaking them down and doing them slowly, I understand how to solve for the measure of the angle within the clock diagram.

Learning Target #12

This learning target talks about writing a paragraph proof. During class, I understood how to do the proofs, but once I got home, I didn't understand where we were supposed to do our work within the paragraph. To help myself, I reread the section in the book on paragraph proofs and worked off of the examples. Now I understand paragraph proofs.

Learning Target #11

This learning target is about identifying bisectors and trisectors of segments and angles.The only trouble I had with this learning target is remembering that when a point or ray bisects/trisects and angle or segment, the divided angles or segments are congruent. Now that I remember that, I have mastered this learning target.

Learning Target #18

Learning target #18 is about solving probability problems. I mostly understand them, until they get more complicated. Down below I put a picture of an example of a more difficult probability question from the homework (page 52 #9). After practicing a few like these they make a little bit more sense.

Learning Target #5

aeconomy062 — 2015-09-03 03:15:50 UTC

This learning target addresses recognizing congruent angles and segments. The only problem I had with this learning target is knowing when to assume if something is congruent or not. After memorizing the chart, I understand this learning target.

Learning Target #14

aeconomy062 — 2015-09-03 03:22:42 UTC

This learning target talks about identifying undefined terms, postulates, and definitions. When I first read through this learning target, I was very intimidated because I didn't know what these words meant, let alone think of examples for each one. Now, after taking notes and doing homework, I am able to comfortably describe and identify the above terms.

Learning Target #17

aeconomy062 — 2015-09-03 03:33:16 UTC

This learning target talks about using the chain rule to draw conclusions. I didn't know how to do it when I first started doing the homework, but when I realized that there is an easily identifiable beginning and end, it got a lot easier. Now I think that these are some of the easiest problems in the whole chapter!

Learning Target #16

aeconomy062 — 2015-09-03 03:40:27 UTC

This learning target talks about recognizing conditional and the negation, the converse, and the inverse and the contrapositive of a statement. I chose this source because it is very helpful and provides many examples for this learning target.
