This geometry workbook includes: 64 proofs with full solutions, 9 examples to help serve as a guide, and a review of terminology, notation, and concepts. A variety of word topics are covered, including: similar and congruent triangles, the Pythagorean theorem, circles, chords, tangents, alternate interior angles, the triangle inequality, the angle sum theorem, quadrilaterals, regular polygons, area of plane figures, inscribed and circumscribed figures, and the centroid of a triangle. The author, Chris McMullen, Ph.D., has over twenty years of experience teaching math skills to physics students. He prepared this workbook to share his strategies for writing geometry proofs.

This single-volume compilation of 2 books explores the construction of geometric proofs. It offers useful criteria for determining correctness and presents examples of faulty proofs that illustrate common errors. 1963 editions.

Learn and practice essential geometry skills. The answer to every problem, along with helpful notes, can be found at the back of the book. This volume focuses on fundamental concepts relating to circles, including chords, secants, tangents, and inscribed/circumscribed polygons. Topics include: radius, diameter, circumference, and area; chords, secants, and tangents; sectors vs. segments; inscribed and circumscribed shapes; the arc length formula; degrees and radians; inscribed angles; Thales's theorem; and an introduction to 3D objects, including the cube, prism, pyramid, sphere, cylinder, and cone.

Presents algebra exercises with easy-to-follow guidelines, and includes over one thousand problems in numerous algebraic topics.

This book reports recent major advances in automated reasoning in geometry. The authors have developed a method and implemented a computer program which, for the first time, produces short and readable proofs for hundreds of geometry theorems.The book begins with chapters introducing the method at an elementary level, which are accessible to high school students; latter chapters concentrate on the main theme: the algorithms and computer implementation of the method.This book brings researchers in artificial intelligence, computer science and mathematics to a new research frontier of automated geometry reasoning. In addition, it can be used as a supplementary geometry textbook for students, teachers and geometers. By presenting a systematic way of proving geometry theorems, it makes the learning and teaching of geometry easier and may change the way of geometry education.
