Meyer's Geometry and Its purposes, moment Edition, combines conventional geometry with present principles to provide a latest method that's grounded in real-world functions. It balances the deductive strategy with discovery studying, and introduces axiomatic, Euclidean geometry, non-Euclidean geometry, and transformational geometry. The textual content integrates functions and examples all through and contains ancient notes in lots of chapters.

The moment variation of Geometry and Its Applications is an important textual content for any collage or college that specializes in geometry's usefulness in different disciplines. it really is in particular applicable for engineering and technological know-how majors, in addition to destiny arithmetic teachers.

  • Realistic purposes built-in during the textual content, together with (but no longer constrained to):
    • Symmetries of creative patterns
    • Physics
    • Robotics
    • Computer vision
    • Computer graphics
    • Stability of architectural structures
    • Molecular biology
    • Medicine
    • Pattern recognition
  • Historical notes incorporated in lots of chapters
