Euclidean Geometry
 |
This course is
an introduction to the origin and foundations of two- and
three-dimensional geometry. It provides a survey of material needed
to prepare students to teach high school geometry courses. Topics
include synthetic versus analytic proofs, the classification and
representation of motions and similarities, projections, homogeneous
coordinates; the historical role of logical equivalents to Euclid’s
fifth postulate. Dynamical Geometry software is used for exploration
and discovery.
