Prerequisite:MATH 053 or appropriate placement
Advisory: ENGL 035 or ENLA 100 or appropriate placement; READ 043 or appropriate placement; MATH 062 or MATH 070 or MATH 070CD or appropriate placement

This introductory course covers the elements of geometry, including points, lines, planes, and angles, which are used in conjunction with triangles, polygonal, and circular figures in both 2D and 3D configurations. Formulas for computing lengths, areas, and volumes are presented through the use of applications. This course is intended for students who have not taken or completed two semesters of high school geometry, or who need a refresher course prior to taking trigonometry, technology courses, mathematics for elementary teachers, or other courses with a geometry prerequisite.
