Geometry Tutor
The
subject of geometry has to do with the size, shape and relative
positions of figures and their properties in space. There is a lot
to memorize in high school geometry in order to do well on your
exams. Once you have memorized all the material you need for the
test, you must be able to apply that knowledge and analytically
solve the homework or test problem. Geometry is a unique subject in
high school because this will probably be the first time you will be
dealing with proofs. Our Los Angeles Tutors have a lot of
experience working with geometry students and we’re confident that
we’ll be able to teach our students how to approach proofs and be
successful. In addition to proofs, students will have to be able to
manipulate shapes and figures in order to solve more complicated
geometry problems. We have provided many helpful geometry formulas
below to help with the process of learning the subject. In some
cases, teachers allow their students to come to exams with formula
sheets. Regardless of your teachers philosophy about the
memorization of formulas, it’s important to fully understand what
the formulas mean and when to use them. Make sure to read your
geometry question carefully to make sure you’re providing the answer
the question is asking for. There may be many unknowns in your
question so don’t make the mistake of giving the answer to the wrong
unknown. Below the list of formulas, you’ll find resourceful
website links that can be used as a supplement to your lectures and
book. Los Angeles Tutor has a lot of experience with the subtleties
of Geometry and we can help with any issues you are having.
