I have very fond memories of high school geometry. Memorizing theorems wasn't too hard, and solving proofs was like solving the logic puzzles that I did for fun anyway. But the theorems were scattered ...
This article presents a way of studying the rationality that mathematics teachers utilize in managing the teaching of theorems in high-school geometry. More generally, the study illustrates how to ...
Highly powered writers I respect recently recommended the book Trees, maps, and theorems by Dr. Jean-luc Doumont as a set of coherent recommendations for improving communications, and I am happy to ...
Herbert Simon, the Nobel-prize winning economist, was a techno-enthusiast. In 1956 he predicted that, “within 10 years, computers would beat the world chess champion, compose ‘aesthetically satisfying ...
Circles have different angle properties, described by a number of theorems. This is one of two guides on circle theorems, with this guide covering the following: the angle subtended by an arc at the ...
Complex geometry and algebraic geometry are intertwined disciplines that investigate spaces defined by complex analytic structures and polynomial equations. Complex geometry focuses on complex ...
