A practical, measurement‑driven introduction to plane and solid geometry for young students.

This edition takes geometry out of abstract rules and into real drawing and measuring. It aligns with hands‑on lessons where rulers, squares, and protractors are used to explore lines, angles, and shapes. The book gradually connects geometry with arithmetic, graphs, and even the basics of vectors, helping learners see how figures behave in space.

Written to support classrooms and laboratories, it encourages accurate work with simple tools, encourages building models, and emphasizes checking results by measurement. The author guides students from fundamentals to three‑dimensional thinking, showing how drawing and measurement complement each other in understanding geometry.

Clear focus on using instruments, scales, and drawings to learn geometry.
Progress from basic constructions to areas, circles, and three‑dimensional figures.
Introduction to vectors and spatial representation linked to practical problems.
Worked examples and laboratory‑oriented activities to reinforce skills.

Ideal for readers beginning geometry or teachers seeking a practical, school‑tested approach to plane and solid geometry.
