parallelograms, rectangles, rhombi, trapezoids, proofs

## Why it matters

Trains rigorous spatial and deductive reasoning; the historical origin of axiomatic proof and a prerequisite for vector geometry and calculus.

## Where it is used

Design, architecture, engineering drawings, CAD, rendering, and physics spatial reasoning.

## How you know you have learned it

Write 2 independent rigorous proofs + critique/correct one flawed proof.

## What you need first

- [Solving Linear Equations](https://manyspace.aporia.systems/topics/solving-linear-equations-mth-alg1-022) (required)

## Resources
