The result is a challenging, vividly written volume which offers a broader treatment than the traditional Euclidean one, but which preserves its pedagogical virtues. The material included has been judiciously selected: some traditional items have been omitted, while emphasis has been laid on topics which relate the geometry course to the mathematics that precedes and follows. The exposition is clear and precise, while avoiding pedantry. There are many exercises, quite a number of them not routine. The exposition falls into twelve chapters: \u003ci\u003e1. \u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eDistance and Angles.- 2. Coordinates.- 3. Area and the \u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003ePythagoras Theorem.- 4. The Distance Formula.- 5. Some \u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eApplications of Right Triangles.- 6. Polygons.- 7. Congruent\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eTriangles.- 8. Dilatations and Similarities.- 9.

Transformations.- 12. \u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eIsometries.\u003c\/i\u003eThis excellent text, presenting elementary geometry in a manner fully corresponding to the requirements of modern mathematics, will certainly obtain well-merited popularity. \u003ci\u003ePublicationes Mathematicae Debrecen\u003c\/i\u003e#1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1988-08-25\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780387966540\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4757-2022-8\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 394\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer New York","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45988997464204,"sku":"9780387966540","price":58.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780387966540.jpg?v=1772893584","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780387966540","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
