higher point of view. Congruence, distance and similarity, trigonometry, area
and volume, axiomatics and Euclidean geometry; analyses of alternate
approaches, extensions, and applications of mathematical ideas, discussion of
historical contexts and connections between ideas that may have been studied
separately in different courses, relationships of ideas studied in
secondary-school to those students may encounter in later study. When taken for
graduate credit as Math 5524, an extra project is required. Prerequisites: Math
