Practical Geometry (Part Two)
Author: Kwang S. Ko
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781523362011
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 196
Book Description
This is a study guide written primarily for middle and high schoolers in order for them to learn relevant math concepts at their level. There is an introduction before each chapter that describes what will be covered. Chapter 7 discusses similarity, which explains the ratio between two numbers, discern proportions and their properties, identifies the properties of similar polygons, and proves that two triangles can be similar with different postulates and theorems, as well as learning how to identify dilations and its properties. Chapter 8 covers right triangles, which demonstrates how to solve problems involving similar triangles formed by the altitude that is perpendicular to the hypotenuse, finding the lengths of the sides of a triangle with the Pythagorean Theorem, using side lengths to classify triangles and angles measures and finding their length in special right triangles, and to find the magnitude and direction of a vector. Chapter 9 deals with circles that discuss segments and lines related to circles, use properties of tangents, arcs, and chords of a circle as well as the properties of inscribed angles and inscribed polygons of a circle, and finding and graphing the equation of a circle. Chapter 10 teaches areas of polygons and circles, which can describe the angle measures of polygons, the areas of regular polygons as well as the perimeters and areas of similar figures, the circumference and arc length of circles, and the areas of circles and their sectors. Each concept has a step-by-step explanation on how to approach the problems. Afterwards, there is a self- test that assesses the knowledge of the student, and at the end of the book, there is a review test that examines the student's knowledge of all the previous chapters.

Geometry
Author: Harold R. Jacobs
Publisher: Macmillan
ISBN: 9780716743613
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 802
Book Description
Harold Jacobs’s Geometry created a revolution in the approach to teaching this subject, one that gave rise to many ideas now seen in the NCTM Standards. Since its publication nearly one million students have used this legendary text. Suitable for either classroom use or self-paced study, it uses innovative discussions, cartoons, anecdotes, examples, and exercises that unfailingly capture and hold student interest. This edition is the Jacobs for a new generation. It has all the features that have kept the text in class by itself for nearly 3 decades, all in a thoroughly revised, full-color presentation that shows today’s students how fun geometry can be. The text remains proof-based although the presentation is in the less formal paragraph format. The approach focuses on guided discovery to help students develop geometric intuition.

Practical Geometry Algorithms
Author: Daniel Sunday, PhD
Publisher: Independently Published
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
This book presents practical geometry algorithms with computationally fast C++ code implementations. It covers algorithms for fundamental geometric objects, such as points, lines, rays, segments, triangles, polygons, and planes. These algorithms determine the basic 2D and 3D properties, such as area, distance, inclusion, and intersections. There are also algorithms to compute bounding containers for these objects, including a fast bounding ball, various convex hull algorithms, as well as polygon extreme points and tangents. And there is a fast algorithm for polyline simplification using decimation that works in any dimension. These algorithms have been used in practice for several decades. They are robust, easy to understand, code, and maintain. And they execute very rapidly in practice, not just in theory. For example, the winding number point in polygon inclusion test, first developed by the author in 2000, is the fastest inclusion algorithm known, and works correctly even for non-simple polygons. Also, there is also a fast implementation of the Melkman algorithm for the convex hull of a simple polyline. And much more. If your programming involves geometry, this will be an invaluable reference.
