- Fully worked Examples and accompanying practice Exercises included in each chapter
- End of chapter Exercises and Projects containing a wide variety of problems, ranging from skill and drill to collaborative learning to mathematical challenges
- Emphasizes constructions, encouraging students to develop geometric skills using Euclid’s tools—the compass and straightedge
- Illustrations engage students who are visual learners while extensive definitions and examples appeal to students who are more mathematically oriented
- Since progress has been made since Euclid’s time, constructions can also be made using The Geometer’s Sketchpad® or other commonly used geometry software*
- Biographical profiles spotlight historical figures in mathematics, art, and architecture
- Rich appendix that contains indexes to historical figures and locations, geometric constructions and formulas, and a complete bibliography
