I created these study guide to help my students with introductory proofs. There never seems to be enough practice with proofs in the textbooks. It was designed to repeat some of the same theorems and postulates over and over again but in different problems. A complete answer key is included. *Note: Certain problems could be done multiple ways. My answers generally include the shortest complete method. The proofs include the following basic concepts: Definitions -Complementary, Supplmentary

Introducing students to geometric proofs in a geometry class can be a difficult task for both teachers and students. I created this introductory lesson to help get my students' brains in gear. After teaching the first few introductory chapters the kids should have some understanding of basic definitions, postulates and theorems. This worksheet will help them "squeeze" as much information as possible from "givens" in formal proofs. Since I started using this paper and other similar worksheets

Are you introducing proofs for the first time? Are your students struggling with the concept of a proof? I have found that there are very few remediation worksheets on proofs and sometimes it is necessary to go slow until all students get the hang of proofs. It can be frustrating when the textbooks only include one or two examples. I created this very straightforward study guide for beginner proofs on the the common angles formed by 2 parallel lines cut by a transversal line. This particular s

This test was created to assess students knowledge of geometric proofs for all chapters up to the triangle congruence chapter. Proofs on this test include the following concepts: SSS, ASA, SAS, AAS, HL, CPCTC Students must have a background knowledge on proofs and other geometric concepts before taking this test. You could also use this test as a study guide if you prefer. An answer key is included. All teachers seem to approach proofs differently so your answers may vary. I tried to gi

Tired of spending a lot of time on study guides only to find that your students aren't giving them a second look? This creative study guide covers the entire chapter on triangle congruence for a high school geometry class with tips for formal proofs. Specifically these notes cover: Triangle Classification by angle measure and side length Triangle Sum Theorem, Exterior Angle Theorem Definition of Congruent Triangles SSS, SAS ASA, AAS, HL I included some fun "celebrity guests" on these notes t
