Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is an elementary introduction to geometry. In it, the author seeks to take the reader from simple exercises and build up to more complex problems in a manner that makes geometry more accessible and understandable. The book is divided into eight chapters covering topics from lines and angles to circles, triangles, and polygons. The author's methods minimize the use of deductive arguments and instead focus on inductive learning, moving from simple observations and measurements to more difficult concepts. Many books on geometry employ deductive methods, where readers are asked to accept the truth of statements and work with them to discover more about the subject. This book, however, takes a constructivist approach, guiding readers through the process of discovery and allowing them to come to their conclusions. The author thoroughly explains all of the fundamentals of geometry and gives many practical examples and exercises for readers to try. This allows readers to build a solid foundation in geometry and gives them valuable practice applying the concepts they learn.
