The Elements of Solid Geometry (Classic Reprint)

Book info: The Elements of Solid Geometry (Classic Reprint) (Hardcover, 136 pages) – Forgotten Books, 2018. Language: English.

Solid geometry fundamentals with clear explanations and practical exercises. This edition presents the core concepts, proofs, and applications you need to build strong geometric reasoning.

The book offers a structured introduction to lines and planes in space, the polyhedron, cylinders and cones, and the sphere. It combines precise definitions with worked proofs and a variety of exercises, making it suitable for classroom use or self-study.

Readers will learn how planes intersect, how volumes are computed for simple solids, and how sphere geometry extends to spherical figures and polars. The edition emphasizes systematic development, so you can apply the concepts to problems in mathematics and related fields.

• Clear definitions and theorems about lines, planes, and their intersections
• Rules for volumes and areas of polyhedra and pyramids
• Study of cylinders, cones, and the geometry of the sphere
• Worked exercises to reinforce understanding and techniques

Ideal for readers of mathematics who want a solid, standards-based introduction to three-dimensional geometry.
