Test III. ESSAY
Instruction: Answer all questions to the best of your ability. Be guided of the grading system that follows.
Note: You will be graded based on the following:
 Coherence & Substantive Viewpoints (2 pts)
 Relevance & Organization of Thoughts (2 pts)
 Clarity of Words and Cleanliness of Writings (1 point)

1. Being a future teacher not an engineer, what is the practical values in studying geometry? Why?
Key Concepts: foundations for advanced courses & guided students.

Sample Answer: As a future teacher, the importance of studying geometry is very

tremendous since it provides a foundation for more advanced mathematical learning for my future
students. It introduces formulas such as Pythagorean Theorem in Science and Math class, and it also
helps me to guide my students in drawing lines, angles, and shapes with simple tools.

2. How will geometry guide you in understanding and visualizing plane and solid figures?
Key Concepts: introduction of concepts, basic ideas, & enhancement of one’s understanding

Sample Answer: Geometry guides me in understanding and visualizing plane and solid
figures through introducing me about lines, angles, shapes, and measurements which are the basic on
planes and O am also introduced by Geometry with solving a 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional figures
which really helps enhance my understanding and in visualizing solid figures.

3. As a mathematics teacher, how will you impart plane geometry in real life applications?

Key concepts: encouragement, use of imagination, & use in practical use in daily life.

Sample Answer: I can impart plane geometry in real0life application by encouraging my

future students and also myself in applying geometry by any means of constructions in which we use
measurements, in which we use our imagination and visualize a particular geometrical shape and many
others. With geometry we are able to identify geometric shapes, sizes and many others that we always
meet in our daily life.

Good Luck & God Bless!
