Introduction to this week's module:

Module 12 introduces the concept of of using equations of lines for problem solving.  A significant amount of material will be introduced here and through the next two modules, but the focus will be on the practical usage of the material for solving problems and understanding geometry.  The only required homework submission for Module 12 is listed below.  You are also encouraged to do practice problems in the readings.  The practice problems include solutions and explanations in the readings.

To meet the learning outcomes in this module, students are expected to complete the following:
