The Complete High School Study Guide - Geometry

Good

Es un libro que tiene los contenidos esenciales sobre geometría explicados de una forma muy clara. Reproduce un formato de apuntes tomados en clase con claves visuales que facilitan el aprendizaje. Me ha gustado mucho.

I love this series so much. Fonts and drawings are really nice. Contents are also great.

This book and the others like it generally have everything you’ll need unless you’re doing advanced classes, the amount of questions they give per topic is a little small but the answers are always on the next page over which is nice. As far as textbooks go these are the best ones you’ll find when factoring in how cheap they are.

I'm a 22yr old and wasted my time in school i.e. my mathematical knowledge is terrible. Recent interests have developed and I found a need to study mathematics and a certain curiosity toward it. I find this book to be the perfect start. Those who stumbled upon a similar video as to that of 'The Math Sorcerer' where he presents literature for a deep dive into mathematics will see that the recommendations start with either pre-algebra or proof writing/discrete math. Which is also a good place to start. But geometry gets lost somewhere. For most people in my situation, you will most likely have the common pre-algebraic knowledge needed to understand the contents of this book (since it does involve some calculations). Now why do I recommend this particular book as a start? I don't think that pre-algebra books are required for most adults, because intermediate or college algebra books are more serious and still give time to remember and learn new/necessary things to pursue the topic. Pre-algebra might be too easy for most. Geometry, on the other hand, is visual and the book touches on more and more difficult topics the further you go - therefore some things will jog your memory from the school days. I think this leaves a less chance of experiencing boredom. Nothing too difficult though. Secondly, the book focuses a bit on proof writing and deductions, which will be a nice fresh start for the next books in your journey (if you're planning to delve deeper into mathematics). In conclusion, with occasional overlaps into other elementary fields which will be needed in a more focused study of other topics, this book is easy to start with and has more of a chance to kickstart the drive for further inquiry in the field of mathematics. Note: don't expect an elaborate explanation of geometry or the theorems/postulates/axioms/proofs provided. For a more detailed study in geometry I recommend academic books written just about that topic. The reason I rate this book highly is of the potential for adults to have a new start and try to get into mathematics with a new perspective. This is an adequate choice with plenty of room to solve problems and give written solutions for a mind that has been deprived of mathematics. In my opinion, this is the best and only choice from the series for people in a similar situation. Edit: I realized that most curriculums go along a path: 'pre-algebra -> algebra 1 -> geometry'. So not only does the book include simple algebra, it's necessary for studying the later subjects. Although, I must repeat myself that most of the algebraic actions are carefully explained and the book does not contain anything too difficult in that regard.

Intressant tanke med boken. Ser inte ut som en bok, därför uppfattas av ett barn annorlunda. Jag själv fastnade för ett par timmar med den här boken. Enkelt förklarat material.
