One of the alterations made with this view, respects the Doctrine of Proportion, the method of treating which, as it is laid down in the fifth of euclid, has great advantages, accompanied with considerable de feets; of which, however, it must be observed, that the advantages are essential, and the defects only ac cidental. To explain the nature of the former, re quires a more, minute examination than is suited to this place, and must, therefore, be reserved for the Notes; but, in the mean time, it may he remarked.

Elements of Geometry (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book embarks on a journey into the world of geometry, starting with the fundamental building blocks: points, lines, and angles. The author meticulously defines these elements, establishing a clear and concise language for understanding geometric concepts. With each definition, the book lays the foundation for a logical progression through increasingly complex geometric figures, including triangles, circles, and polygons. Written during a time of burgeoning scientific inquiry, this work reflects the era's fascination with the underlying order and structure of the natural world. Geometry, with its emphasis on proof and logical reasoning, played a crucial role in shaping the scientific method and influencing philosophical thought. The book delves into the properties of these shapes, exploring their relationships and the principles that govern their construction. Through a series of propositions and proofs, the author unveils the inherent beauty and harmony within geometric forms. Concepts such as congruence, parallelism, and the sum of angles in a triangle are explored in detail, providing readers with a profound understanding of the geometric principles that shape our world. This book's insights into geometry offer a timeless testament to the power of human reason and the elegance of mathematical principles in understanding the universe around us. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
