Geometry With Applications and Proofs: Advanced Geometry for Senior High School, Student Text and Background Information

by Aad Goddijn, Martin Kindt, Wolfgang Reuter

This book shows how geometry can be learned by starting with real world problems which are solved by intuition, common sense reasoning and experiments. Gradually the more formal demands of mathematical proofs get their proper place and make it possible to explore new applications. This process helps students to feel the need for precise definitions and procedures, to contribute to the construction of an axiomatic system, and to experience the power of systematic reasoning.
