Description
Geometry Course Overview
This class is approved by the NCAA.
This class is part of the MyFunScience online homeschool classes, which provide live instruction for middle school and high school students.
This live online Geometry class for homeschool students helps build strong spatial reasoning and logical thinking skills—essential for success in advanced high school math.
In this course, students explore key topics in geometry and trigonometry, including deductive reasoning, postulates and theorems, lines and angles, congruence and similarity, circles, polygons, transformations, and trigonometric ratios—all with connections to real-world applications.
Building on Algebra 1, students develop new ways of thinking about math through visual and logical problem-solving. Because many geometry concepts aren’t heavily repeated in later courses, this class focuses on helping students gain a deep, lasting understanding.
During live, interactive online sessions, students can ask questions in real time, work through problems together, and build confidence in a supportive environment.
