Proof: Year 10 – planning tool
This planning resource for Year 10 is for the topic of Proof. Students are familiar with the basics of geometry and have been introduced to proof when looking at similar triangles. They will be extending and applying these skills and using deductive reasoning and geometric theorems to solve spatial problems in relation to congruency and angle relationships.
