GEOMETRIC GEMS (V1)

Our physical world is embedded in a geometric environment. Plane geometry has many amazing wonders beyond those that are briefly touched on in school curriculums. The triangle, one of the basic instruments in geometry, has a plethora of unexpected curiosities. Geometric Gems presents one of the largest collections of triangle curiosities currently available, which the authors discuss in an easily understood fashion, requiring nothing more of readers other 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 audience, and their love for geometry should be greatly enhanced through exploring these many unexpected relationships in geometry. Geometric Gems is also suitable for mathematics teachers, to enhance the education of their students with these highly motivating triangle properties.
