Strand 2 Leaving Certificate Higher Level Geometry and Trigonometry
Course Description
Co-ordinate geometry and synthetic geometry are frequently used in real life to help us understand the transformations and dimensions of shapes and figures such as lines, polygons, triangles and circles. Synthetic geometry involves the examination of shapes by means of axioms and theorems. Co-ordinate geometry studies circles and lines using a fixed set of co-ordinates.
Trigonometry involves the 'real life' measurements of angles, length and circular measure in both three and two dimensions. The use of trigonometry can be seen in the areas of building and construction, quantity surveying, and in architecture generally. This strand is one of the most applicable areas of the Leaving Certificate Project Maths syllabus and allows students to gain experience of real-world applications
This strand will merge the mathematical aspects of geometry and trigonometry with good examples of real-life applications. This is a very accessible course that breaks down common problems and equations. It also serves as excellent study material for those preparing for their Leaving Certification!
