Classically, geometry has been the subject in which students encounter mathematical proof based on formal deduction. Attention to proof in the geometry curriculum is strengthened by a focus on reasoning and sense making. This book examines the four key elements (conjecturing about geometric objects, construction and evaluation of geometric…

This study examines the origins of geometry in and out of the intuitively given everyday lifeworlds of children in a second-grade mathematics class. These lifeworlds, though pre-geometric, are not without model objects that denote and come to anchor geometric idealities that they will understand at later points in their lives. Roth's analyses…

This volume, a reprinting of a classic first published in 1952, presents detailed discussions of 26 curves or families of curves, and 17 analytic systems of curves. For each curve the author provides a historical note, a sketch or sketches, a description of the curve, a discussion of pertinent facts, and a bibliography. Depending upon the curve,…

This textbook presents definitions and remarks, axioms, properties of polygons, ratios and proportions, planes and their angles, measurement of areas and proportions of figures, solids, and mensuration of surfaces, solids, and round bodies.

Children who learn math fundamentals in preschool and kindergarten have the best chance of later achievement in school--but too often, children don't get the effective early math instruction that makes all the difference. Now there's a core early childhood textbook that helps current and future educators teach the most critical math concepts to…

This textbook discusses ratios and proportions; the circle and measurement of angles; proportions of figures--measurement of areas; regular polygons--measurement of the circle; planes and polyhedral angles; polyhedrons; the cylinder, cone, and sphere; spherical geometry; plane trigonometry; analytical trigonometry; spherical trigonometry; and…

This textbook presents principles, ratios and proportions, the circle and measurement of angles, regular polygons and measurement of the circle, planes and solid angles, polyhedrons, the three round bodies, analytical trigonometry, plane and spherical trigonometry, and mensuration. [This book was revised and adapted by Charles Davies.]

This text is the second of five in the Secondary School Advanced Mathematics (SSAM) series which was designed to meet the needs of students who have completed the Secondary School Mathematics (SSM) program, and wish to continue their study of mathematics. This volume is devoted to a rigorous development of theorems in plane geometry from 22…

This text is the third of five in the Secondary School Advanced Mathematics (SSAM) series which was designed to meet the needs of students who have completed the Secondary School Mathematics (SSM) program, and wish to continue their study of mathematics. The first of the two chapters in this text deals with equations, inequalities and radicals.…

This text is the last of five in the Secondary School Advanced Mathematics (SSAM) series which was designed to meet the needs of students who have completed the Secondary School Mathematics (SSM) program, and wish to continue their study of mathematics. In this volume the solution of systems of linear and quadratic equations and inequalities in…

This pamphlet introduces the student to the basic ideas and procedures of transformational geometry through a series of worksheets. After developing intuitively the idea of rigid motion, vector diagrams are introduced, and translations are discussed in some detail. (SD)
