Designed for use within a junior/senior level geometry course, the topics covered in this text will enable the student to enhance their geometric skills, solve problems with a variety of old and new techniques (constructing models, conjectures, guessing, drawing pictures, etc.) and see how mathematical ideas are connected (similar solutions to solve different problems). Each chapter provides exercises, notes and a list of references for further reading.

A New World of Geometry Awaits Your Discovery! The last stone falls out ... a rush of ancient air ... the glint of gold ... the tingle of discovery ... When explorers first opened the tombs of the ancient pharaohs, they knew that they had discovered something wonderful. That feeling, that same passionate sense of discovery, is one of the most powerful educational tools a text can deliver. Geometry by Discovery is an exciting new approach to geometry. This ground-breaking text taps the pedagogical value of discovery to help students stretch their geometric perspective and hone their geometric intuition. It actively engages students in solving mathematical problems, and empowers them to be successful problem-solvers and discoverers of mathematical ideas.
David Gay is the author of Geometry by Discovery, published by Wiley.
