MAT 093 Developmental Geometry 3 credits

This is a course in the fundamental concepts of geometry for students whose background does not include the one year of high school geometry necessary for the pursuit of college-level courses in mathematics. Undefined terms, axioms and postulates, theorems, the properties of congruence and similarity, ratio and proportion, area, perimeter and volume are examined in the appropriate context of plane or solid geometry with attention given to inductive, deductive and indirect proofs and problem-solving. This course is not designated for transfer credit, nor will credit be given toward an associate degree. 14 (3 lecture hours)

Prerequisite: MAT 091 with a minimum grade of C or appropriate placement score
