The Geometry Of Compasses

The Geometry of Compasses, written by Oliver Byrne in 1877, is a comprehensive guide to solving geometric problems using only compasses and circles. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part providing an introduction to the principles of geometry and the second part presenting a series of problems that can be solved using compasses and circles. The book is written in a clear and concise style, with detailed explanations of each problem and step-by-step instructions for solving them. The problems range in difficulty from basic constructions to more complex constructions involving multiple circles and intersecting lines. In addition to the problems themselves, the book also includes numerous illustrations and diagrams to aid in understanding the concepts and solutions. The illustrations are all done in a unique style, with each circle and line drawn in a different color to make them easier to distinguish. Overall, The Geometry of Compasses is an essential resource for anyone interested in geometry or mathematics, as it provides a thorough and practical approach to solving geometric problems using only compasses and circles.And The Use Of Colored Diagrams And Symbols.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
