Description
From two authors who embrace technology in the classroom and value the role of collaborative learning comes College Geometry Using The Geometer’s Sketchpad, a book that is ideal for geometry courses for both mathematics and math education majors. The book's truly discovery-based approach guides students to learn geometry through explorations of topics ranging from triangles and circles to transformational, taxicab, and hyperbolic geometries. In the process, students hone their understanding of geometry and their ability to write rigorous mathematical proofs.

Each copy of the book comes with a CD-ROM containing Sketchpad documents that relate directly to the material in the text. These multi-page documents help students launch into the book’s activities and provide dynamic, interactive versions of all figures in the text. Students will need access to the Sketchpad™ program.
