Algebra 2: no new homework, so make sure you're caught up!

Geometry: We have a Quiz on Monday on parallel lines and transversals. You should be completing the following problems from your textbook as a way of studying:
  • p 146 #11-16, 21, 26
  • pp. 153-4 #10-15, 20-22
The quiz is on
  1. Identifying types of angle pairs (vertical angles, linear pairs, corresponding angles, etc)
  2. Calculating missing angles when you know two lines are parallel.
  3. Deciding (and explaining why!) lines are or are not parallel, given some angles.
Pre-Calculus: Find a (relatively) current news article that uses statistics, and be prepared to discuss it in class. The article from class today about the lawsuit for possible gender-biased layoffs is one good example.

Calculus: No new homework. Be sure to finish up old assignments.
