Malcom, Paul Scott – 1968
This investigation extends a 25-point geometric system for defining a 25-point trigonometry whose properties are analogous to those of the trigonometry of the Euclidean plane. These properties include definitions of trigonometric functions arising from ratios of sides of right triangles, the relations of elements of a given triangle through the…

Yeshurun, Shraga – International Journal of Mathematical Education, 1977
An examination problem and solution gives rise to the question of whether there actually exists a theorem concerning the minimal period of the sum of certain periodic functions. The author discusses such a theorem and uses the situation to support mathematical education as opposed to the teaching of mathematics. (MN)
