Announcements

Our final exam will take place from 1:00 P.M. to 3:00 P.M. on Monday, December 14, 2009. The final exam will be comprehensive, but it may emphasize the material we have covered since the third midterm exam. This material begins with the section in Chapter 4 entitled "Angle Sum of a Triangle."

If you go to the bookstores, the textbook could be out of stock. If this should happen, then to obtain the book, you may need to talk to someone from the bookstore and ask him or her to order the book for you.
