Description

Our physical world is embedded in a geometric environment. Plane geometry has many amazing wonders beyond those that are briefly touched on at school. The circle, one of the basic aspects of geometry, has a plethora of unexpected curiosities, which the authors present in an easily understandable fashion requiring nothing more than the very basics of school geometry to appreciate these curiosities and their justifications or proofs. The book is intended to be widely appreciated by a general readership, whose love for geometry should be greatly enhanced through exploring these many unexpected relationships. Geometric Gems is also suitable for mathematics teachers, to enhance the education of their students with these highly motivating circle properties.
