  • Triangles and polygons: Classifying and identifying; features and properties; the Triangle Inequality Theorem; the Midpoint Theorem; and more
  • Perimeter and area: Parallelograms, trapezoids, regular polygons, circles
  • Similarity: Ratio and proportion; properties of proportions; similar triangles
  • Right triangles
  • Circles: Central angles and arcs; inscribed angles; chords, secants, tangents; arc length, sectors
  • Geometric solids and coordinate geometry
