The first is devoted to Euclidean geometry. The second covers non-Euclidean geometry. The last part explores symmetry. Exercises and activities are interwoven with the text to enable them to exploregeometry. The activities take advantage of geometric software so theyll gain a better understanding of its capabilities.
