This book provides an inquiry-based introduction to advanced Euclidean geometry. It utilizes dynamic geometry software, specifically GeoGebra, to explore the statements and proofs of many of the most ...
"An appendix of practical geometry" has special dated title page which reads: An appendix of practical geometry. In two parts. The first contains an easy, brief, and independent demonstration of ...
Mathematics is distinguished from the sciences by the freedom it enjoys in choosing basic assumptions from which consequences can be deduced by applying the laws of logic. We call the basic ...
Euclidean geometry, as presented by Euclid, consists of straightedge-and-compass constructions and rigorous reasoning about the results of those constructions. We show that Euclidean geometry can be ...
There is no satisfactory theory of three-dimensional non-Euclidean geometry, from an intuitional point of view, unless it gives us a clear three-dimensional image in our ordinary space, assuming, of ...
Geometry may be one of the oldest branches of mathematics, but it’s much more than a theoretical subject. It’s part of our everyday lives, says Professor Jennifer Taback, and key to understanding many ...
A caterpillar network (or graph) G is a tree with the property that removal of the leaf edges of G leaves one with a path. Here we focus on minimum weight spanning caterpillars where the vertices are ...
