Product Description
Schaum's Outline of Geometry is a revised edition of this very successful solved-problem outline first published in 1963. "Measure of an angle" terminology and metric as well as customary units are used throughout. Dates and amounts, sections on quantifiers, and laws of reasoning have been updated. Analytic geometry and transformational geometry has been added and the section on solid geometry shortened in line with the recent national curriculum changes. The book integrates plane geometry with arithmetic, algebra, numerical trigonometry, analytic geometry, and simple logic. For plane geometry courses in high schools and colleges and for those who want independent self study. 712 Solved Problems are included. Additionally, this book includes hundreds of supplementary problems.
