Geometry: Tutorial and Practical Problems (Idiot's Guides)
by Sonal Bhatt Rebecca DaytonCovering everything a student would encounter in a high school or college course, Idiot's Guides: Geometry explains concepts in the easiest possible manner. Content includes everything from the basics of geometry; reasoning and proof; triangles; quadrilaterals; area and volume; similarity, perpendicular and parallel lines; and much more. This all-new book integrates a practice problems section to reinforce lessons. In addition, a glossary of geometry terms, postulates, and theorems provides a quick reference to need-to-know information.
Geometry
by Cindy J. Boyd Jerry Cummins Carol E. Malloy Alfinio FloresTHE PROGRAM STUDENTS NEED; THE FOCUS TEACHERS WANT! "Glencoe Geometry" is a key program in our vertically aligned high school mathematics series developed to help all students achieve a better understanding of mathematics and improve their mathematics scores on today's high-stakes assessments.
Geometry
by Cindy J. Boyd Jerry Cummins Carol E. Malloy Alfinio Flores John A. CarterA flexible program with the solid content students need Glencoe Geometry is the leading geometry program on the market. Algebra and applications are embedded throughout the program and an introduction to geometry proofs begins in Chapter 2.
Geometry
by David A. Brannan Matthew F. Esplen Jeremy J. GrayThis richly illustrated and clearly written undergraduate textbook captures the excitement and beauty of geometry. The approach is that of Klein in his Erlangen programme: a geometry is a space together with a set of transformations of the space. The authors explore various geometries: affine, projective, inversive, hyperbolic and elliptic. In each case they carefully explain the key results and discuss the relationships between the geometries. New features in this second edition include concise end-of-chapter summaries to aid student revision, a list of further reading and a list of special symbols. The authors have also revised many of the end-of-chapter exercises to make them more challenging and to include some interesting new results. Full solutions to the 200 problems are included in the text, while complete solutions to all of the end-of-chapter exercises are available in a new Instructors' Manual, which can be downloaded from www. cambridge. org/9781107647831.
Geometry: Mathematics in Context (2nd edition)
by Cord CommunicationsPoints, lines, and planes are the basic figures of geometry. In algebra, you used ordered pairs of numbers to locate points on a coordinate plane. You also used tables of ordered pairs and linear equations to locate and draw straight lines on a coordinate plane. Geometry on the coordinate plane is called coordinate geometry.
Geometry: Euclid And Beyond (Undergraduate Texts In Mathematics)
by Robin HartshorneIn recent years, I have been teaching a junior-senior-level course on the classi cal geometries. This book has grown out of that teaching experience. I assume only high-school geometry and some abstract algebra. The course begins in Chapter 1 with a critical examination of Euclid's Elements. Students are expected to read concurrently Books I-IV of Euclid's text, which must be obtained sepa rately. The remainder of the book is an exploration of questions that arise natu rally from this reading, together with their modern answers. To shore up the foundations we use Hilbert's axioms. The Cartesian plane over a field provides an analytic model of the theory, and conversely, we see that one can introduce coordinates into an abstract geometry. The theory of area is analyzed by cutting figures into triangles. The algebra of field extensions provides a method for deciding which geometrical constructions are possible. The investigation of the parallel postulate leads to the various non-Euclidean geometries. And in the last chapter we provide what is missing from Euclid's treatment of the five Platonic solids in Book XIII of the Elements. For a one-semester course such as I teach, Chapters 1 and 2 form the core material, which takes six to eight weeks.
Geometry: Our Cultural Heritage
by Audun HolmeThis book contains selected topics from the history of geometry, with "modern" proofs of some of the results, as well as a fully modern treatment of selected basic issues in geometry. It is geared towards the needs of future mathematics teachers. All too often the geometry which goes into the syllabus for these students presents the material in a pedantic and formalistic style, suppressing its dynamic character and its role as part of the foundation of our common cultural heritage. As such, one of my goals is to open up these aspects of the field; another is to extend an invitation to mathematics in general. It is an unfortunate fact that today, at a time when mathematics and knowledge of mathematics are more important than ever, phrases like math avoidance and math anxiety are very much in the public vocabulary. Making a serious effort to heal these ills is an essential task. Thus the book also aims at an informed public, interested in making a new beginning in math. <p><p> For the 2nd edition, some of the historical material giving historical context has been expanded and numerous illustrations have been added. The main difference is however the inclusion of a large number of exercises with some suggestions for solutions.
Geometry: A Common Core Curriculum

Geometry: Seeing, Doing, Understanding
by Harold JacobsJacob's Geometry textbook has guided nearly one million students through the process of developing not just knowledge about Geometry, but a lasting understanding of Geometry concepts, principles, and application. Considered by many to be the authoritative Geometry text, Jacobs' math has solidified its reputation of preparing students for academic & career success and is a highly respected standard for teaching high school Geometry. Harold Jacobs' clear, engaging, conversational approach guides students through practical, real-world Geometry, allowing them to develop a true understanding of deductive reasoning, lines & angles, congruence, inequalities, quadrilaterals, area, triangles, circles, theorems, polygons, geometric solids, and more! <P><P><i>Advisory: Bookshare has learned that this book offers only partial accessibility.

Geometry: Applying, Reasoning, Measuring (Mcdougal Littell High School Math Ser.)
by Ron Larson Laurie BoswellGeometry, like much of mathematics and science, developed when people began recognizing and describing patterns. In this course, you will study many amazing patterns that were discovered by people throughout history and all around the world. You will also learn to recognize and describe patterns of your own. Sometimes, patterns allow you to make accurate predictions.
