Plane and Solid Geometry (Classic Reprint)Excerpt from Plane and Solid Geometry I have therefore, out of an experience as a computer and worker in applied mathematics, as well as a teacher, eliminated from this treatise all propositions that are not of practical value or needed in the demonstration of such pro-positions. This exclusion leaves out about one-half of the matter usually included in our text-books on geometry. However, instructors will not entirely miss those familiar and interesting theorems which helped to swell the books they studied, such theorems as fall below the practical standard are here given as exercises or as corollaries.
