G.LP: : Logic and Proofs

G.LP.1: : Understand and describe the structure of and relationships within an axiomatic system (undefined terms, definitions, axioms and postulates, methods of reasoning, and theorems). Understand the differences among supporting evidence, counterexamples, and actual proofs.

G.LP.2: : Use precise definitions for angle, circle, perpendicular lines, parallel lines, and line segment, based on the undefined notions of point, line, and plane. Use standard geometric notation.

G.LP.3: : State, use, and examine the validity of the converse, inverse, and contrapositive of conditional (“if – then”) and bi-conditional (“if and only if”) statements.

G.LP.4: : Understand that proof is the means used to demonstrate whether a statement is true or false mathematically. Develop geometric proofs, including those involving coordinate geometry, using two-column, paragraph, and flow chart formats.

G.PL: : Points, Lines, and Angles

G.PL.1: : Prove and apply theorems about lines and angles, including the following:

G.PL.1.a: : Vertical angles are congruent.

G.PL.2: : Explore the relationships of the slopes of parallel and perpendicular lines. Determine if a pair of lines are parallel, perpendicular, or neither by comparing the slopes in coordinate graphs and equations.
