9781330266373: Non-Euclidean Geometry (Classic Reprint)

Synopsis

In a world of different geometries, this book explores a geometry discovered by Lobachevsky, where lines that don't intersect continually approach each other. Unlike familiar Euclidean geometry, this Hyperbolic Geometry presents a fascinating universe where the sum of a triangle's angles is less than 180 degrees and parallel lines diverge as they extend infinitely. With detailed exploration of its intriguing concepts through propositions, theorems, and analytical methods, the author reveals the unique properties of this non-Euclidean realm. By comparing it with Euclidean and Elliptic Geometries, the book offers a profound insight into the nature of geometry itself.
