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 ...
In 1847, an eccentric British mathematician named Oliver Byrne released a new edition of Euclid’s famous mathematical treatise, The Elements of Geometry. Byrne added a rather longwinded but ultimately ...
Everyone learns the number one rule about triangles in high school: the angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees. But did you know that sometimes they don't? Triangles are much more interesting than ...
Euclidean geometry is a mathematical well-known system attributed to the Greek mathematician Euclid of Alexandria. Euclid's text Elements was the first systematic discussion of geometry. It has been ...
To explore this long-standing mystery, an international team of scientists formed a group known as the Collaboration for ...
We’ve all learned “parallel lines never intersect” in high school geometry. But what your teachers failed to explain is that “parallel lines never intersect” is only true in Euclidean geometry, which ...
In the mid-19th century, Bernhard Riemann conceived of a new way to think about mathematical spaces, providing the foundation ...
IT is interesting to compare the attitudes of the two most recent writers in English who deal with Euclidean geometry. Sir Thomas Heath, in the second edition of his three-volume translation of the ...
