Geometry: Seeing,
Doing, Understanding,
3rd edition - We really liked the second edition, and the
third edition is even better! There is more focus on informal and paragraph
proofs, over 30% more exercises, and almost all of the exercises are new or
revised. Problems from the SAT are included as well as examples from around the
world and ancient and modern times that help show the real life applications and
universal nature of geometry.
The artwork is now in full color and there are
over 2,200 new photographs, drawings and cartoons to illustrate the examples and
exercises. It is a high school/college level text that
covers points, lines and planes; rays and angles; congruent triangles; inequalities;
parallel lines; quadrilaterals; area; similarity; circles; the right triangle; the
concurrence theorems; regular polygons; geometric solids; non-Euclidean geometry; and
coordinate geometry.
A couple of math-professor friends have told us they really
like the proofs in this text.
Our son worked independently using this book and met once a
week with a friend and a tutor to go over the work. Both boys really enjoyed
the text and our son would frequently share bits from the books that he
found interesting. It's such a joy to have your child share their enthusiasm
for learning new information and to learn something new yourself.
