Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a practical guide to geometrical drawing, consisting of 89 problems, divided into three parts. The problems are arranged in pairs which either treat the same figure, or have a similar result. The first part teaches the elements of geometry, through problems that construct triangles, quadrilaterals, and circles. The second part focuses on polygons with more than four sides, and introduces the concept of the ellipse. The final part delves into advanced topics such as conic sections, and the division of lines into extreme and mean proportion. Throughout the book, the author presents clear and concise instructions, accompanied by illustrative diagrams, making it an accessible guide for students and practitioners alike. The book's structured approach and practical exercises provide a solid foundation in geometrical drawing, and its historical context and thematic depth make it a valuable resource for those interested in the subject. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780282572228_0
