This concise undergraduate-level text explores the relationship between algebra and geometry. Topics include determinants and linear equations, matrices, linear transformations, projective geometry, geometry on the sphere, and much more. An elementary course in plane geometry is the sole requirement, and answers to the exercises appear at the end. 1962 edition.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This brief undergraduate-level text by a prominent Cambridge-educated mathematician explores the relationship between algebra and geometry. An elementary course in plane geometry is the sole requirement for Gilbert de B. Robinson's text, which is the result of several years of teaching and learning the most effective methods from discussions with students. Topics include lines and planes, determinants and linear equations, matrices, groups and linear transformations, and vectors and vector spaces. Additional subjects range from conics and quadrics to homogeneous coordinates and projective geometry, geometry on the sphere, and reduction of real matrices to diagonal form. Exercises appear throughout the text, with complete answers at the end. Concise undergraduate-level text by a prominent mathematician explores the relationship between algebra and geometry. An elementary course in plane geometry is the sole requirement. Includes answers to exercises. 1962 edition. This item is printed on demand.
