Publisher's Synopsis
Famous Geometrical Theorems and Problems: With Their History is a book written by William Whitehead Rupert and first published in 1900. The book explores some of the most famous geometric theorems and problems in mathematics, accompanied by their historical background and development. The book is divided into two parts. The first part covers theorems and problems related to straight lines, angles, triangles, and quadrilaterals. The second part covers more complex theorems and problems related to circles, conic sections, and other advanced geometrical concepts. Each theorem or problem is presented with a brief history of its origin and development, as well as a detailed explanation of the proof. The book also includes numerous diagrams and illustrations to aid the reader's understanding. Famous Geometrical Theorems and Problems: With Their History is a valuable resource for students and professionals in the field of mathematics, as well as anyone interested in the history and development of mathematical concepts.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
