Students Entering Geometry
Summer Packet
Cypress Ridge High School
Many topics that we will study next year in your Geometry class build on topics
that you have already learned in previous classes. Since many of you may have
been away from these ideas for a period of time, you might need a refresher in
order to be up to speed at the beginning of the course. We have chosen a
selection of topics for you to cover during the summer.
Do all work for these problems on a separate sheet of paper. If you are unfamiliar
with a term or type of problem, refer back to your notes or go online to the
various help sites for mathematics (see below). The skills covered are part of the
foundation for your course. Mastery of these skills could help determine your
success in Geometry.
Have this work ready for the first day of class. Completed or circled and
annotated with specific questions. Only use a calculator to check your work. It
will greatly help you master future topics if you can work these problems
without a calculator. Specially the fraction problems.
We look forward to working with you next year!

Formulas you may need:
Area: (length)(width)
Area Circle : or (3.14)
Circumference : or 2(3.14)(radius) or (3.14)(diameter)
If you dont get to do all, at least focus on 34-49 and 71-94.
