General Information

Overview

In this unit, you will learn and apply the concepts and properties of points, lines, angles, planes and polygons to solve geometry problems. You will determine the area, perimeter and properties of standard and composite shapes. Calculations of the surface area and volumes of polyhedra and composite solids are also studied. The application of geometry principles and concepts will allow you to develop solutions to applied mathematics problems. You will also analyse and synthesise geometry techniques, principles and concepts into a cohesive, valid and logically communicated solution using correct geometry terminology and notation, and mathematical language.

Attendance Requirements

All on-campus students are expected to attend scheduled classes - in some units, these classes are identified as a mandatory (pass/fail) component and attendance is compulsory. International students, on a student visa, must maintain a full time study load and meet both attendance and academic progress requirements in each study period (satisfactory attendance for International students is defined as maintaining at least an 80% attendance record).
