Plain Plane Geometry by Amol Sasane (PDF)

Description

The book constitutes an elementary course on Plane Euclidean Geometry, pitched at pre-university or at advanced high school level. It is a concise book treating the subject axiomatically, but since it is meant to be a first introduction to the subject, excessive rigour is avoided, making it appealing to a younger audience as well. The aim is to cover the basics of the subject, while keeping the subject lively by means of challenging and interesting exercises. This makes it relevant also for students participating in mathematics circles and in mathematics olympiads.Each section contains several problems, which are not purely drill exercises, but are intended to introduce a sense of ‘play’ in mathematics, and inculcate appreciation of the elegance and beauty of geometric results. There is an abundance of colour pictures illustrating results and their proofs. A section on hints and a further section on detailed solutions to all the exercises appear at the end of the book, making the book ideal also for self-study.

User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐As the title says, this book sticks to abstract idea of lines and angles and go deeper into proofs and geometric constructions. Most average high school text these days try to make the subject ‘more practical’ and ‘easier understand’ by talking about ladders, playground slides etc. and lots of substitute and calculate type exercises. I was looking for a book with less ‘noise’ and challenging but still at high school level. This book served that purpose very well.With more than 1/3 of the book dedicated to hints and solutions, this is a great book for self study for a motivated student as well.

⭐The exercises are a lot of fun and eclectic. Loved working through the book!
