Geometry Revisited
Author: H. S. M. Coxeter
Publisher: American Mathematical Society
ISBN: 1470466414
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
Among the many beautiful and nontrivial theorems in geometry found in Geometry Revisited are the theorems of Ceva, Menelaus, Pappus, Desargues, Pascal, and Brianchon. A nice proof is given of Morley's remarkable theorem on angle trisectors. The transformational point of view is emphasized: reflections, rotations, translations, similarities, inversions, and affine and projective transformations. Many fascinating properties of circles, triangles, quadrilaterals, and conics are developed.

The Mathematical Olympiad Handbook
Author: Anthony Gardiner
Publisher: Oxford Science Publications
ISBN: 9780198501053
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
Olympiad problems help able school students flex their mathematical muscles. Good Olympiad problems are unpredictable: this makes them worthwhile but it also makes them seem hard and even unapproachable. The Mathematical Olympiad Handbook contains some of the problems and solutions from the British Mathematical Olympiads from 1965 to 1996 in a form designed to help bright students overcome this barrier.

Mathematical Methods in Science
Author: George Pólya
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780883856260
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
This book captures some of Pólya's excitement and vision. Its distinctive feature is the stress on the history of certain elementary chapters of science; these can be a source of enjoyment and deeper understanding of mathematics even for beginners who have little, or perhaps no, knowledge of physics.

Hungarian Problem Book III
Author: György Hajós
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780883856444
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 164
Book Description
This book contains the problems and solutions of a famous Hungarian mathematics competition for high school students, from 1929 to 1943. The competition is the oldest in the world, and started in 1894. Two earlier volumes in this series contain the papers up to 1928, and further volumes are planned. The current edition adds a lot of background material which is helpful for solving the problems therein and beyond. Multiple solutions to each problem are exhibited, often with discussions of necessary background material or further remarks. This feature will increase the appeal of the book to experienced mathematicians as well as the beginners for whom it is primarily intended.

Guide to Information Sources in Mathematics and Statistics
Author: Martha A. Tucker
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 0313053375
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 362
Book Description
This book is a reference for librarians, mathematicians, and statisticians involved in college and research level mathematics and statistics in the 21st century. We are in a time of transition in scholarly communications in mathematics, practices which have changed little for a hundred years are giving way to new modes of accessing information. Where journals, books, indexes and catalogs were once the physical representation of a good mathematics library, shelves have given way to computers, and users are often accessing information from remote places. Part I is a historical survey of the past 15 years tracking this huge transition in scholarly communications in mathematics. Part II of the book is the bibliography of resources recommended to support the disciplines of mathematics and statistics. These are grouped by type of material. Publication dates range from the 1800's onwards. Hundreds of electronic resources-some online, both dynamic and static, some in fixed media, are listed among the paper resources. Amazingly a majority of listed electronic resources are free.
