Synopsis

New plane geometry offers a revised approach to learning the fundamentals of geometry.

This classic text adapts to modern ideas while keeping a clear focus on definitions, proofs, and problem solving. The edition emphasizes a balanced mix of essential proofs and carefully chosen exercises, with an eye toward practical understanding and classroom use.

The book introduces new concepts in a conservative way and includes historical notes to enrich study. It also references supporting tools like a Geometry Tablet for practice, and it preserves the engaging, teacher-friendly approach that helped the original edition succeed.
  • Clear definitions of solid, surface, line, angle, and point, with guided development of geometric ideas
  • Structured chapters on plane figures, circles, chords and tangents, and the mensuration of plane figures
  • A mix of proofs, corollaries, and a large set of problems to build reasoning and skill
  • Appendices and supplementary material that support practice and historical context
Ideal for students beginning geometry and for teachers seeking a traditional, solid foundation with modern refinements.
