Geometry Web Sites of Interest
-
- Dimensions - Nine chapters, two hours of maths, that take you gradually up to the fourth dimension. Mathematical vertigo guaranteed! Background information on every chapter
- Geometry Expressions fills the gap between Geometry software and Algebra applications by allowing the user to quickly sketch a simple or complex geometrical drawing, then producing the algebraic description.
- Native American Geometry - a physical, proportional geometry that originates from the simple circle. A growing body of architectural and iconographic evidence from Native America suggests it was a relatively common tradition that has been practiced for at least two thousand years. This is the same type of geometry that was discovered and developed by the ancestors of many peoples in many places, from China to the Mediterranean Basin to the British Isles.
- Geometry from the Land of the Incas - A Peruvian site with Euclidean geometry problems involving circles and triangles, with proofs, animation and sound: Poncelet, Napoleon, Eyeball, Steiner, Carnot, Sangaku, Morley, Langley and the Butterfly Theorem. You can also investigate Inca Geometry (Cuzco, Machu Picchu, Incan Quipu, Nazca Lines, Lord of Sipan); and quotes from Descartes, Galileo, Newton, Pappus, Plato, Poincaré, Voltaire, and try some quizzes.
