Problems in Geometry
Author: Marcel Berger
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1475718365
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 275
Book Description
Written as a supplement to Marcel Berger’s popular two-volume set, Geometry I and II (Universitext), this book offers a comprehensive range of exercises, problems, and full solutions. Each chapter corresponds directly to one in the relevant volume, from which it also provides a summary of key ideas. Where the original Geometry volumes tend toward challenging problems without hints, this book offers a wide range of material that begins at an accessible level, and includes suggestions for nearly every problem. Bountiful in illustrations and complete in its coverage of topics from affine and projective spaces, to spheres and conics, Problems in Geometry is a valuable addition to studies in geometry at many levels.

Introduction to Projective Geometry
Author: C. R. Wylie
Publisher: Courier Corporation
ISBN: 0486141705
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 578
Book Description
This lucid introductory text offers both an analytic and an axiomatic approach to plane projective geometry. The analytic treatment builds and expands upon students' familiarity with elementary plane analytic geometry and provides a well-motivated approach to projective geometry. Subsequent chapters explore Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometry as specializations of the projective plane, revealing the existence of an infinite number of geometries, each Euclidean in nature but characterized by a different set of distance- and angle-measurement formulas. Outstanding pedagogical features include worked-through examples, introductions and summaries for each topic, and numerous theorems, proofs, and exercises that reinforce each chapter's precepts. Two helpful indexes conclude the text, along with answers to all odd-numbered exercises. In addition to its value to undergraduate students of mathematics, computer science, and secondary mathematics education, this volume provides an excellent reference for computer science professionals.

The Wonder Book of Geometry
Author: David Acheson
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0192585371
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
How can we be sure that Pythagoras's theorem is really true? Why is the 'angle in a semicircle' always 90 degrees? And how can tangents help determine the speed of a bullet? David Acheson takes the reader on a highly illustrated tour through the history of geometry, from ancient Greece to the present day. He emphasizes throughout elegant deduction and practical applications, and argues that geometry can offer the quickest route to the whole spirit of mathematics at its best. Along the way, we encounter the quirky and the unexpected, meet the great personalities involved, and uncover some of the loveliest surprises in mathematics.
