...the textbook and every original should be so attacked, ie analyzed. Thus in teaching the proposition, "If the opposite sides of a quadrilateral are equal, the figure is a parallelogram," we should ask, What is the usual method of demonstrating the parallelism of lines ? And after the original... | |
