About this title

Synopsis

Methods for Euclidean Geometry explores one of the oldest and most beautiful of mathematical subjects. In this revised edition, the book begins with a thorough presentation of classical solution methods for plane geometry problems, but its distinguishing feature is the subsequent wealth of methods it uses to solve problems, many of which arose where existing techniques proved inadequate. Students studying and applying this variety of methods, as well as the classic analytical method, will develop their appreciation of the subject and of mathematics as a whole.
