Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Famous Geometrical Theorems and Problems: With Their History The author, having derived much pleasure and inspiration from the brief historical notes in some of the mathematical text-books that he studied when a student in college, has thought that, by giving the history of a few of the most celebrated geometrical theorems and problems, he might place a light in the window which may throw a cheerful ray adown the long and sometimes dusty pathway that leads to geometrical truth.

Download or read book The Kepler Conjecture written by Jeffrey C. Lagarias and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-11-09 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Kepler conjecture, one of geometry's oldest unsolved problems, was formulated in 1611 by Johannes Kepler and mentioned by Hilbert in his famous 1900 problem list. The Kepler conjecture states that the densest packing of three-dimensional Euclidean space by equal spheres is attained by the “cannonball" packing. In a landmark result, this was proved by Thomas C. Hales and Samuel P. Ferguson, using an analytic argument completed with extensive use of computers. This book centers around six papers, presenting the detailed proof of the Kepler conjecture given by Hales and Ferguson, published in 2006 in a special issue of Discrete & Computational Geometry. Further supporting material is also presented: a follow-up paper of Hales et al (2010) revising the proof, and describing progress towards a formal proof of the Kepler conjecture. For historical reasons, this book also includes two early papers of Hales that indicate his original approach to the conjecture. The editor's two introductory chapters situate the conjecture in a broader historical and mathematical context. These chapters provide a valuable perspective and are a key feature of this work.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Famous Geometrical Theorems and Problems With Their History The author, having derived much pleasure and inspiration from the brief historical notes in some of the mathematical text-books that he studied when a student in college, has thought that, by giving the history of a few of the most celebrated geometrical theorems and problems, he might place a "light in the window" which may throw a cheerful ray adown the long and sometimes dusty pathway that leads to geometrical truth. In the preparation of this little book most valuable assistance has been derived from Florian Cajori's History of Mathematics, James Gow's History of Greek Mathematics, and G. J. Allman's Greek Geometry from Thales to Euclid, It is, however, to W. W. Rourse Ball's remarkably interesting Short History of Mathematics that Famous Geometrical Theorems and Problems owes the largest debt. To Professor A. D. Eisenhower, Principal of the Norristown High School, George Q. Sheppard, Professor of Mathematics, Hill School, Pottstown, Pa., Dr. George M. Philips, Principal West Chester State Normal School, and Daniel Carhart, C.E., Dean and Professor of Civil Engineering, Western University of Pennsylvania, who have read this book in manuscript, the author is indebted for valuable, suggestions and many kind words of encouragement. For the excellent and accurate diagrams, and for proof No. V. in Chapter I., my thanks are due to my young friend and former pupil, Luther D. Showalter, C.E.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This short book, first published in 1897, addresses three geometry puzzles that have been passed down from ancient times. Written for high school students, this book aims to show a younger audience why math should matter and to make the problems found in math intriguing. Klein presents for his readers an investigation of the possibility or impossibility of finding solutions for the following problems in light of mathematics available to him: duplication of the cube trisection of an angle quadrature of the circle Mathematicians and students of the history of math will find this an intriguing work. German mathematician FELIX KLEIN (1849 1925), a great teacher and scientific thinker, significantly advanced the field of mathematical physics and made a number of profound discoveries in the field of geometry. His published works include Elementary Mathematics from an Advanced Standpoint: Arithmetic, Algebra, Analysis and Elementary Mathematics from an Advanced Standpoint: Geometry."
Download or read book Methods of Solving Complex Geometry Problems written by Ellina Grigorieva and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-08-13 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a unique collection of challenging geometry problems and detailed solutions that will build students’ confidence in mathematics. By proposing several methods to approach each problem and emphasizing geometry’s connections with different fields of mathematics, Methods of Solving Complex Geometry Problems serves as a bridge to more advanced problem solving. Written by an accomplished female mathematician who struggled with geometry as a child, it does not intimidate, but instead fosters the reader’s ability to solve math problems through the direct application of theorems. Containing over 160 complex problems with hints and detailed solutions, Methods of Solving Complex Geometry Problems can be used as a self-study guide for mathematics competitions and for improving problem-solving skills in courses on plane geometry or the history of mathematics. It contains important and sometimes overlooked topics on triangles, quadrilaterals, and circles such as the Menelaus-Ceva theorem, Simson’s line, Heron’s formula, and the theorems of the three altitudes and medians. It can also be used by professors as a resource to stimulate the abstract thinking required to transcend the tedious and routine, bringing forth the original thought of which their students are capable. Methods of Solving Complex Geometry Problems will interest high school and college students needing to prepare for exams and competitions, as well as anyone who enjoys an intellectual challenge and has a special love of geometry. It will also appeal to instructors of geometry, history of mathematics, and math education courses.
