About this title

Synopsis

""Plane Geometry: Experiment, Classification, Discovery, Application"" is a book written by Clarence Addison Willis and published in 1922. The book is focused on the study of plane geometry, which is a branch of mathematics that deals with the properties and relationships of geometric figures in a two-dimensional space. The author presents a unique approach to teaching geometry, emphasizing the importance of experimentation and discovery in the learning process. The book is divided into four main sections: Experiment, Classification, Discovery, and Application. In the first section, Willis encourages readers to conduct their own experiments and explore the properties of geometric figures through hands-on activities. The second section focuses on classification, where the author presents a systematic way of organizing geometric figures based on their properties. In the third section, Willis guides readers through the process of discovering new properties and relationships between geometric figures. The final section, Application, provides practical examples of how geometry is used in real-life situations, such as architecture and engineering. Overall, ""Plane Geometry: Experiment, Classification, Discovery, Application"" is a comprehensive guide to the study of plane geometry, offering a unique perspective on the subject and encouraging readers to actively engage in the learning process through experimentation and discovery.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
