Geometry

//Students deepen their understanding of plane and solid geometric shapes and properties by constructing shapes that meet given conditions, by identifying attributes of shapes, and by applying geometric concepts to solve problems. Below are links to help you.//

3-D Object Viewer - Explore a variety of 3-D objects and their accompanying 2-D views.
