It was great to see Joshua today. We began with answering questions that Joshua had from his practice test. We covered a problem regarding triangles and considering how the sides would be proportional. Josh had the right idea on the setup, but was not correlating the correct numbers together. Once explained, he understood the error. Next, he explained that his loss of points came from the Algebra and Geometry section of the ACT. We looked at the breakdown of content within those sections and Josh said he did not have any understanding of matrices. So we looked at the types of problems that the ACT tests when it comes to matrices. We discussed how to add, subract, and multiply matrices. We discussed how to find a determinant. We worked on how to use matrices to represent systems of equations. Then, we pulled up practice problems on those concepts. Joshua did great. The last concept we need to cover before his next test is conic sections. I will come prepared with material on that subject when we meet next class.
