Default Anyone here took Geometry before?

My first term in Geometry and it fcking sucks. 9th grades gets 4 quarters of math while 10th grades gets 2 quarters (****ing bastards)
4 freaking terms of damm geo is going to suck.


Anyone found a way to attack the proofs.....

I never had much trouble with geometry. Although doing proofs got very annoying, very fast. You shouldn't have much trouble with them. I managed to pass with an A while sleeping through most of the class. If you're confused about something, look for it in the book. That's what I always do.

Dude our entire chapter is proofs.

Angle theorm crap.

At least when I get to 10th grade it will be a 2 quarter math since Algebra advance is two quarters right?

Depends what type of proofs, if you mean proving something, then I suggest something called proof by induction.
Math is good for you =), trust me if you can take more of it you should. You will need it if you plan on doing anything science related, or business related.

But I am only a 9th grader!!!!... I seen some 9th graders taking algebra 1 and I was wondering how they got so relaxed...... Damm they got it easy.

Algebra 1 mess with the mind but proofs are just pure logic.

The school system here makes us take math since we 1st start school.. I dont see the downside of it
And proofs isnt exactly hard to understand.. espc geometry...

LOL I took Algebra 1 when I was in 7th grade, Geometry when I was in 8th and Algebra II when i was in 9th.
Trust me it will help you in the long run, especially if you need at least one more year after 10th grade. As well it will help you in the future, I know it is hard to believe and I remember taking Geometry thinking when the hell will I ever need to use this, but it is used so much more then you can ever imagine.
I suggest you write the proof so we can try and help you out =).
