Synopsis

Modern Geometry is a comprehensive textbook written by Charles Godfrey and published in 1908. The book covers a wide range of topics in geometry, including Euclidean geometry, projective geometry, and non-Euclidean geometry. It is intended for use by students who have a solid foundation in algebra and trigonometry.The book is divided into three parts. The first part covers Euclidean geometry, including lines, angles, triangles, circles, and polygons. The second part covers projective geometry, which is a more advanced form of geometry that deals with properties that are invariant under projective transformations. The third part covers non-Euclidean geometry, which is a type of geometry that differs from Euclidean geometry in that it does not assume the parallel postulate.Throughout the book, Godfrey provides clear explanations of the concepts and theorems, and he includes numerous examples and exercises to help students develop their understanding. The book also includes numerous diagrams and illustrations to help students visualize the concepts.Overall, Modern Geometry is a valuable resource for students and teachers of geometry, providing a thorough and accessible introduction to the subject.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Elementary -G eometry written by the same authors. It covers the schedule of Modern Plane Geometry required for theS pecial Examination in Mathematics for theO rdinary B.A. Degree at Cambridge ;and represents what we take to be a useful course for any student of Mathematics, whether he intends to read forM athematical Honours, or to take up Physics orE ngineering. For those who ultimately make a special study of Geometry, this book would serve as an introduction to more advanced treatises. Our experience tends to shew that boys find no little difficulty, at the outset, in mastering the ideas of Modern Plane Geometry; and, especially, in solving the problems usually set. We have therefore put in a number of quite easy exercises, arranged to lead by easy stages to theS cholarship questions at the end of Chapters. We have to thank Mr H. M. Taylor for permission to use some of the exercises included in his edition of Euclid. C. G. A. W. S. June,

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
