Geometry


Protractor
Geometry's fun, I've heard people say,
Learn the angles in a round about way.
Lay it on the line, draw it in the air.
You can prove any shape or measure it there.

Grab the givens and know about 'em,
Cause you can't build your proof without 'em.
With all the whys and whats and wherefores,
You need to stick to good old therefores.

Linear thoughts put our brains in gear.
Work with triangles now becomes clear.
It's so much fun since we have the rule.
My man, Pythagoras, was really cool.

No dude can eat a piece of this Pi.
And the graphs won't grow without a y;.
A hypotenuse is a sight to see.
Oh! I love to learn this GEOMETRY!
