Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is the first part of the author's extensive exploration of the geometry of space, focusing on the plane. The author presents geometry as a science and a rigorous mathematical discipline, not simply a collection of isolated theorems. Geometry is the study of space, and this book lays out foundational concepts, axioms, and general theorems for the field. The author begins by defining concepts such as points, lines, surfaces, and solids that form the basis of this branch of mathematics. From these, the author dives into the study of figures created by straight lines, defining angles, perpendicular lines, circles, and more, as well as exploring relationships between different figures. The author presents the material in a logical progression, introducing postulates and theorems that build upon the concepts and constructions previously covered. Questions are provided throughout to guide readers through the learning process and encourage independent exploration. Constructions are introduced in parallel with the theoretical material, allowing readers to apply their knowledge in practice. This book is an excellent resource for students learning plane geometry or mathematicians looking to brush up on the fundamentals of the subject. It is also a valuable resource for educators looking to present geometry as a connected and logical discipline. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
