Connect algebra and geometry on the coordinate plane. The eighth unit in a nine-part integrated course has pupils develop the distance formula from the Pythagorean Theorem. Scholars prove geometric theorems using coordinates including the relationships between the slopes of parallel and perpendicular lines. Learners also investigate translations of the graph of functions and their related equations.
