Publisher's Synopsis
Elements of Geometry is a comprehensive textbook that contains books 1-6 and portions of books 11 and 12 of Euclid. The book is written by Euclid, a Greek mathematician who lived in Alexandria around 300 BC. The textbook is designed for students who are studying geometry, and it includes exercises and notes to help them understand the material.The first six books of the textbook cover topics such as lines, angles, triangles, circles, and polygons. These books provide a foundation for the more advanced topics covered in books 11 and 12, which focus on solid geometry. The portions of books 11 and 12 included in the textbook cover topics such as the properties of cones, cylinders, and spheres.In addition to the text itself, the book also includes exercises and notes. The exercises are designed to help students practice the concepts they have learned, while the notes provide additional explanations and insights into the material. The book was originally published in 1883 and has since become a classic in the field of geometry. It remains a valuable resource for students and teachers alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
