Nirode, Wayne; Boyd, Brian – School Science and Mathematics, 2021
The Common Core State Standards for Mathematics ("CCSSM") explicitly states many specific theorems for students to prove across multiple domains (i.e., congruence, similarity, circles, and coordinates) in high school geometry. This study examined five high school geometry textbooks for how they approached proof of 17 theorems stated in…
