Excerpt from Original Exercises in Plane and Solid Geometry

During the last few years the custom has become quite general in high schools and academies of giving a general review of preparatory mathematics during the last year of the course; and of that review a portion now universally recognized as holding a place of great importance is the original work designed to round out a student's course in plane and solid geometry. This collection of theorems, constructions, and numerical problems is designed to sup ply the material for this original work. The exercises which make up the book are arranged somewhat promiscuously, the design being that the stu dent shall not be restricted in his method of proof just as he is not restricted in his method of proof for any original exercise he may be asked to solve when he attempts to pass his entrance examination to college.
