DESCRIPTION:
"A quick note from one of the authors" according to Lindz. Just to pick up on the previous review, the reviewer is correct that this book isn't focussed on geometry proofs in the formal sense.Instead, it aims to be a stepping stone for learners, moving them across that big scary jump between simply learning formulas and plugging your numbers in, and creating formal geometry proofs.In Head First 2D Geometry, the learner - not the author - creates the formulas that they need to solve challenging problems. By going through the pr. This book is not about proofs Since the average student of geometry is having problems performing the proofs which make up the largest portion of any geometry course, I'd say that most high school and college geometry students will not get that much out of this book. Most geometry students easily grasp how to make geometric calculations, what they can't do is formally prove why those calculations are correct.However, if you are a technician and you need to learn how to solve problems using geometry. captured my son's attention Doug Hammack With honors geometry coming up in school this Fall, I had my son work through 2D Geometry over the summer break. Of course, he thought the idea of having to to do schoolwork over summer break was indication that he had been born of a Nazi father. However, once he caught the idea that this was going to happen, and that I'd be checking over his work each week, he gave the book a chance.And once he did, he was thoroughly engaged. Instead of a formal, class-like approach,
Using the latest research in cognitive science and learning theory to craft a multi-sensory learning experience, Head First 2D Geometry uses a visually-rich format designed for the way your brain works, not a text-heavy approach that puts you to sleep.. You'll actually use what you learn to make real-life decisions, like using angles and parallel lines to crack a mysterious CSI case. Through entertaining stories and practical examples from the world around you, this book takes you beyond boring problems. Put geometry to work for you, and nail your class exams along the way.We think your time is too valuable to waste struggling with new concepts. With Head First 2D Geometry, you'll master everything from triangles, quads
