Synopsis

Original Exercises in Plane and Solid Geometry is a classic collection of theorems, constructions, and numerical problems designed to round out a student’s work in geometry.

This edition presents a broad range of challenges, from straightforward exercises to deeper proofs, in a format that mirrors the tone of a traditional high‑school or college preparatory course.

Designed to build both technique and curiosity, the book invites students to generalize concepts, explore historical ideas in geometry, and learn new principles as they work through problems that span triangles, quadrilaterals, and related topics. The exercises are organized to support independent work and flexible approaches to proof, much like real classroom and exam scenarios.

• Practice proving geometric facts about triangles, parallelograms, trapezoids, and other shapes.
• Explore angle relationships, medians, altitudes, and angle bisectors through varied problems.
• Encounter constructions and numerical problems that reinforce core ideas in plane and solid geometry.
• Gradually build skill from easier exercises to more challenging ones, while maintaining focus on clear reasoning.

This edition is well suited for students preparing for entrance exams or coursework in geometry, and for anyone seeking a substantial, historically rooted problem set to sharpen proof-writing and geometric insight.

Ideal for readers who want a structured, hands-on approach to foundational geometric concepts and problem solving.
