Learning Outcomes: - (NCATE-11) Candidates use spatial visualization and geometric modeling to explore and analyze geometric shapes, structures, and their properties, including:
- 11.1 Demonstrate knowledge of core concepts and principles of Euclidean geometry in two and three dimensions.
- 11.2 Exhibit knowledge of informal proof.
- 11.3 Build and manipulate representations of two- and three-dimensional objects and perceive an object from different perspectives.
- 11.4 Specify locations and describe spatial relationships using coordinate geometry.
- 11.5 Analyze properties and relationships of geometric shapes and structures.
- 11.6 Apply transformation and use congruence, similarity, and line or rotational symmetry.
