Book Reviews of Geometry the Easy Way (Barron's Easy Way)
Book Review: Geometry review
Summary: 4 Stars
This book primarily covers plane geometry which is the bulk of a traditional geometry course. Books back in the day, covered more with dihedral angles, and proofs in 3-dimensions. This book covers the essence. Proofs that range from 8 to 13 to 14 steps as I encountered. I like the examples, and the problems are not directly the same, so they dont exactly regurgitate and to me that is learning. Congruent triangles, proving a quadrilateral is a parallelogram, rhombus, so forth is covered extensively, each chapter has exercises at the end of the chapter with review problems. Theres only solid geometry on spheres, cylinders, cubes, and prisms.They ask you to calculate the surface area and volume. There is also calculations on the volume of a cone. They dont however go into calculating surface area, lateral area of cones, or composite figures hemispheres attached to cylinders, or areas of pyramids inscribed in cones, or area of a circus tent, story problems (cylinders attached to cones) Thats my major gripe Im very fastidious for education and a consumer, I give this book 4 stars, not 5 if this was added I would have given great study tool, better exercises than watered down books. This is not even a text book, thats what makes it so unique. A student will succeed from most geometry books with this book, ample examples. I guarantee it. You have to put the time in though and understand the material not just memorize, you have to apply the concepts, investigate, analyze, and use reasoning. Now thats critical thinking and true learning.
