Geometry; 3/6

We spent time today reviewing the concepts involved in the first part of our study of right triangles.  We went over a couple of problems together before spending the bulk of the period working in pairs on several types of review problems.  The students spent the last 10-15 minutes of the period getting started on their chapter 8 quiz review.  The quiz is tomorrow.

Assignment:  Chapter 8 quiz review.
