Description

Modern Geometry covers axiomatic foundations of Euclidean and Non-Euclidean geometries, finite geometry, transformations, congruence, formal proofs, tessellations, fractals and use of computer graphics technology. The emphasis will be on the contrast between the traditional and modern approaches to geometry. The course will provide students with the real-world applications of geometry, provide students opportunities to develop and do proofs, and provide students with the opportunity to explore one topic in depth and write a paper about it.
