Prove geometric theorems. Prove theorems about triangles. Theorems include: measures of interior angles of a triangle sum to 180°; base angles of isosceles triangles are congruent; the segment joining midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and half the length; the medians of a triangle meet at a point. Clarification: Theorems include but are not limited to the listed theorems. Example: an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two non-adjacent interior angles of the triangle

Make geometric constructions. Make formal geometric constructions with a variety of tools and methods (compass and straightedge, string, reflective devices, paper folding, dynamic geometric software, etc.). Copying a segment; copying an angle; bisecting a segment; bisecting an angle; constructing perpendicular lines, including the perpendicular bisector of a line segment; and constructing a line parallel to a given line through a point not on the line. Clarification: Constructions include but are not limited to the listed constructions. Example: constructing the median of a triangle or constructing an isosceles triangle with given lengths.
