Download or read book Deductive Geometry written by E.A. Maxwell and published by Courier Dover Publications. This book was released on 2016-01-14 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This concise review examines the geometry of the straight line, circle, plane, and sphere as well as their associated configurations, including the triangle and the cylinder. Aimed at university undergraduates, the treatment is also useful for advanced students at the secondary level. The straightforward approach begins with a recapitulation of previous work on the subject, proceeding to explorations of advanced plane geometry, solid geometry with some reference to the geometry of the sphere, and a chapter on the nature of space, including considerations of such properties as congruence, similarity, and symmetry. The text concludes with a brief account of the elementary transformations of projection and inversion. Numerous examples appear throughout the book.
Download or read book DEDUCTIVE GEOMETRY written by RAYMOND GUYAMIER and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2013-06-26 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deductive Geometry is for students, parents, and teachers who need practice solving proofs in geometry. Specifically, where geometry is part of the 4e curriculum in a French program, or for American students taking geometry between grades 8 and 10. This book shows, step-by-step, how to reason and solve geometry problems by writing solutions in a clear, logical, and deductive sequence. This strategy is called modeling. Students learn by imitating the method and eliminating all the non-value adding verbiage that are distracting to the grader. By showing the core steps required to solve a problem, students avoid extraneous text and steps that make the solution difficult to follow and difficult for the grader to evaluate with precision. The book should be used as a complement to any geometry textbook. It is especially beneficial for average students with difficulties writing the solution to a problem in a logical deductive process. I would recommend the user of my book to, first, try to solve the problems entirely before comparing with the step-by-step solutions following each chapter.

Book excerpt: Deciphering the Proof is for students, parents, and new teachers who need practice solving proofs in Geometry. Specifically, where Geometry is part of the 4e curriculum in a French program, or for American students taking Geometry between Grades 8 and 10. The book shows, step-by-step, how to reason and solve Geometry problems, by writing solutions in a clear, logical, and deductive sequence. This strategy is called, "modeling." Students learn, by imitating the method, and eliminating all the non-value adding verbiage that distract graders. By showing the core steps required to solve a problem, students avoid extraneous text, and steps, which make the solution difficult to follow, and difficult for the grader to evaluate with precision. Teachers can use the material, in class, by showing partial solutions (of the reasoning or the proof), and asking the students to complete the other part. The book should be used as a complement to a Geometry textbook. It is especially beneficial for average students with difficulties writing the solution to a problem in a logical deductive process. It is recommended to the user of the book to, first, try to solve the problems entirely, before comparing with the step-by-step solutions following each chapter.

Download or read book Euclidean and Transformational Geometry written by Shlomo Libeskind and published by Jones & Bartlett Learning. This book was released on 2008-02-12 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ideal for mathematics majors and prospective secondary school teachers, Euclidean and Transformational Geometry provides a complete and solid presentation of Euclidean geometry with an emphasis on solving challenging problems. The author examines various strategies and heuristics for approaching proofs and discusses the process students should follow to determine how to proceed from one step to the next through numerous problem solving techniques. A large collection of problems, varying in level of difficulty, are integrated throughout the text and suggested hints for the more challenging problems appear in the instructor's solutions manual and can be used at the instructor's discretion.
Download or read book Geometry Geodesics and the Universe written by Robert G. Bill and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2023-03-19 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of the development of geometry is told as it emerged from the concepts of the ancient Greeks, familiar from high school, to the four-dimensional space-time that is central to our modern vision of the universe. The reader is first reacquainted with the geometric system compiled by Euclid with its postulates thought to be self-evident truths. A particular focus is on Euclid’s fifth postulate, the Parallel Postulate and the many efforts to improve Euclid’s system over hundreds of years by proving it from the first four postulates. Two thousand years after Euclid, in the process that would reveal the Parallel Postulate as an independent postulate, a new geometry was discovered that changed the understanding of geometry and mathematics, while paving the way for Einstein’s General Relativity. The mathematics to describe the non-Euclidean geometries and the geometric universe of General Relativity is initiated in the language of mathematics available to a general audience. The story is told as a mathematical narrative, bringing the reader along step by step with all the background needed in analytic geometry, the calculus, vectors, and Newton’s laws to allow the reader to move forward to the revolutionary extension of geometry by Riemann that would supply Einstein with the language needed to overthrow Newton’s universe. Using the mathematics acquired for Riemannian geometry, the principles behind Einstein’s General Relativity are described and their realization in the Field Equations is presented. From the Field Equations, it is shown how they govern the curved paths of light and that of planets along the geodesics formed from the geometry of space-time, and how they provide a picture of the universe’s birth, expansion, and future. Thus, Euclid’s geometry while no longer thought to spring from perceived absolute truths as the ancients believed, ultimately provided the seed for a new understanding of geometry that in its infinite variety became central to the description of the universe, marking mathematics as a one of the great modes of human expression.
Download or read book Interactions on Digital Tablets in the Context of 3D Geometry Learning written by David Bertolo and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-07-14 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last few years, multi-touch mobile devices have become increasingly common. However, very few applications in the context of 3D geometry learning can be found in app stores. Manipulating a 3D scene with a 2D device is the main difficulty of such applications. Throughout this book, the author focuses on allowing young students to manipulate, observe and modify 3D scenes using new technologies brought about by digital tablets. Through a user-centered approach, the author proposes a grammar of interactions adapted to young learners, and then evaluates acceptability, ease of use and ease of learning of the interactions proposed. Finally, the author studies in situ the pedagogic benefits of the use of tablets with an app based on the suggested grammar. The results show that students are able to manipulate, observe and modify 3D scenes using an adapted set of interactions. Moreover, in the context of 3D geometry learning, a significant contribution has been observed in two classes when students use such an application. The approach here focuses on interactions with digital tablets to increase learning rather than on technology. First, defining which interactions allow pupils to realize tasks needed in the learning process, then, evaluating the impact of these interactions on the learning process. This is the first time that both interactions and the learning process have been taken into account at the same time.
Download or read book Designing Learning Environments for Developing Understanding of Geometry and Space written by Richard Lehrer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume reflects an appreciation of the interactive roles of subject matter, teacher, student, and technologies in designing classrooms that promote understanding of geometry and space. Although these elements of geometry education are mutually constituted, the book is organized to highlight, first, the editors' vision of a general geometry education; second, the development of student thinking in everyday and classroom contexts; and third, the role of technologies. Rather than looking to high school geometry as the locus--and all too often, the apex--of geometric reasoning, the contributors to this volume suggest that reasoning about space can and should be successfully integrated with other forms of mathematics, starting at the elementary level and continuing through high school. Reintegrating spatial reasoning into the mathematical mainstream--indeed, placing it at the core of K-12 mathematics environments that promote learning with understanding--will mean increased attention to problems in modeling, structure, and design and reinvigoration of traditional topics such as measure, dimension, and form. Further, the editors' position is that the teaching of geometry and spatial visualization in school should not be compressed into a characterization of Greek geometry, but should include attention to contributions to the mathematics of space that developed subsequent to those of the Greeks. This volume is essential reading for those involved in mathematics education at all levels, including university faculty, researchers, and graduate students.
Download or read book Rods Sets and Arrows written by Dirk De Bock and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-12-10 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For anyone interested in the history and effects of the introduction of so-called “Modern Mathematics” (or “Mathématique Moderne,” or “New Mathematics,” etc.) this book, by Dirk De Bock and Geert Vanpaemel, is essential reading. The two authors are experienced and highly qualified Belgian scholars and the book looks carefully at events relating to school mathematics for the period from the end of World War II to 2010. Initially the book focuses on events which helped to define the modern mathematics revolution in Belgium before and during the 1960s. The book does much more than that, however, for it traces the influence of these events on national and international debates during the early phases of the reform. By providing readers with translations into English of relevant sections of key Continental documents outlining the major ideas of leading Continental scholars who contributed to the “Mathématique Moderne” movement, this book makes available to a wide readership, the theoretical, social, and political backdrops of Continental new mathematics reforms. In particular, the book focuses on the contributions made by Belgians such as Paul Libois, Willy Servais, Frédérique Lenger, and Georges Papy. The influence of modern mathematics fell away rapidly in the 1970s, however, and the authors trace the rise and fall, from that time into the 21st century, of a number of other approaches to school mathematics—in Belgium, in other Western European nations, and in North America. In summary, this is an outstanding, landmark publication displaying the fruits of deep scholarship and careful research based on extensive analyses of primary sources.
