Excerpt from Solid Geometry Again, teachers of Geometry generally agree that the most difficult part of their work lies in developing in pupils the power to work original exercises. The second main purpose of the book is to aid in the solution of this difficulty by arranging original exercises in groups, each of the earlier groups to be worked by a distinct method. The pupil is to be kept working at each of these groups till he masters the method involved in it. Later, groups of mixed exercises to be worked by various methods are given. In the current exercises at the bottom of the page, only such exercises are used as can readily be solved in connection with the daily work. All difficult originals are included in the groups of exercises as indicated above. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
