Inhaltsangabe

""A Sequel To The First Six Books Of The Elements Of Euclid: Containing An Easy Introduction To Modern Geometry"" is a book written by John Casey and published in 1888. The book is a continuation of Euclid's first six books of geometry, and it aims to provide an easy introduction to modern geometry. The book is divided into two parts: the first part covers the theory of parallels and the second part covers the theory of proportion. The author uses a combination of Euclidean and modern methods to explain the concepts and theorems in a clear and concise manner. The book is intended for students who have completed Euclid's first six books of geometry, and it provides a bridge between classical geometry and modern geometry. The author assumes that the reader has a basic understanding of algebra and trigonometry, and he provides numerous examples and exercises to reinforce the concepts. Overall, ""A Sequel To The First Six Books Of The Elements Of Euclid"" is a valuable resource for students and teachers of geometry, providing a comprehensive and accessible introduction to modern geometry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Manual to collect and arrange all those Elementary Q-eometrical Propositions not given in Euclid which aS tudent will require in his Mathematical Course. The necessity for such a Work will be obvious to every person engaged in Mathematical Tuition. I have been frequently obliged, when teaching the Higher Mathematics, to interrupt my demonstrations, in order to prove some elementary Propositions on which they depended, but which were not given in any book to which I could refer. The object of the present little Treatise is to supply that want. The following is the plan of theW ork. It is divided into five Chapters, corresponding to Books I., II., III., IV., YI. of Euclid. The Supplements to Books I.-IV. consist of twoS ections each, namely, Section I., Additional Propositions; Section II., Exercises.
